A few days ago, PUBG on the PC had experienced several server interruptions. Yesterday, routine live server maintenance was performed, and players were unable to connect to servers and received a message saying that a “network lag” was detected.

PC Players: We're aware players in some regions are experiencing connectivity issues since maintenance ended, including "Network Lag Detected".

Our team is investigating these issues at the highest priority and we'll update you once resolved.

PUBG was quick to respond by posting a tweet revealing that the developer is aware of the connectivity issues and resolving the problem was their highest priority. Now, to appease disappointed fans for the service disruption, PC players who will be logging in before 5 PM PDT on October 23, will receive a free black beanie with headphones, together with some 20,000 battle points for players to spend in-game.

We sincerely apologize for the negative experience caused by our recent server connectivity and matchmaking related issues. As compensation, we will be gifting all PC players the Black Beanie with Headphones item along with 20,000 BP. Log in to PUBG by 5pm PDT on Oct 23 to claim. pic.twitter.com/CW5L8nf25z
