The rarest new PUBG items show up once every 80 years, on average

Enlarge / It takes good money (or good luck) to look this good.

It’s not a huge surprise that the latest test server update for the insanely popular PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds on PC expands the game’s free and paid loot crate system. Despite recent controversy over the practice, loot crates remain one of the most efficient ways to monetize a huge player base and encourage players to keep coming back for a regular drip of Skinner box rewards.

What is surprising is just how uncommon some of these new cosmetic items are. In fact, the rarest free items in PUBG‘s new crates will only show up for the average serious player once every 80 years, while the rarest paid items will require an average of nearly $ 1,600 (and five years of dedicated play time) to unlock.

We know this because PUBG is being refreshingly upfront about the chances of acquiring specific items in the game’s new Desperado and Biker loot crates, which are now available on the game’s test server. The fact that platforms like Apple’s App Store and countries like China are now requiring such drop rates to be published could have something to do with that transparency, or it could be a coincidence.
