PUBG Skins are cosmetic items in PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG) that players can use to customize the appearance of their characters, weapons, and vehicles. They do not affect gameplay or provide any competitive advantage.

Types of PUBG Skins

PUBG offers a wide variety of skins, including:

  • Character Skins: These change the appearance of your in-game character, including outfits, hairstyles, and facial features. This can further be divided into:
    • Outfits: Full sets of clothing or individual pieces like shirts, pants, jackets, and hats.
    • Shoes: Different styles of footwear.

  • Weapon Skins: These alter the look of your guns, often with unique colors, patterns, and designs.

How to Obtain PUBG Skins

Players can acquire skins through several methods:

  • In-Game Store: Purchasing skins directly using UC (Unknown Cash), PUBG's premium currency.
  • Royale Pass: Earning skins by progressing through the Royale Pass tiers. Completing missions unlocks rewards, including exclusive skins.
  • Events: Participating in limited-time events that offer skins as rewards.
  • Crates: Opening crates with UC or earned currency provides a chance to obtain random skins. These crates often require keys (purchased with UC) to open.
  • Prime/Prime Plus Subscriptions: Certain subscription services may offer bonus skins.
  • Silver Fragments: Some basic skins can be purchased using Silver Fragments, which are earned by dismantling duplicate or unwanted items.
  • BP (Battle Points): Some very basic skins, often temporary, can be acquired with Battle Points.

  • Personalization: Allowing players to express their individual style.
  • Collection: Some players enjoy collecting rare and unique skins.
  • Trading: Some skins can be traded with other players (depending on the platform and game version).
