PUBG's "Desert Knights" is known as a "War Mode". This event will give players the break they need after going for the same "Chicken Dinners" every time. The game mode is set in Miramar and has players set up in squads.
Here is Bluehole's official post:
"As the sun slowly climbs over the horizon, five soldiers stand ready. Armed to the teeth and kitted out for battle, these warriors know things are about to heat up the cool desert morning. Their orders as tall as the shadows cast by the rising sun, the Desert Knights are ready and aim to be the last squad standing."
This game mode will feel a bit faster than the usual PUBG gameplay. Level three gear and a standard weapon is given to every player at the beginning of the match. The first team to accumulate 200 points or the team that has the most points when the timer ends, wins.
Here are the official rules:
-

-
Ten 5-man squads fight on Miramar
-
All players spawn with level three gear and a care package weapon
-
