Frosty Funland Arrives With Penguinville & Ice Adventures
Frosty Funland is the star of PUBG MOBILE’s Version 4.1 Update, introducing Penguinville, an enchanting snow-built metropolis powered by penguin engineering.

Players can:

- Meet playful NPCs, including PowNin, the game’s first AI penguin companion
- Command PowNin via voice, text, or quick commands as it flings shurikens, dashes like a ninja, and snacks on sardines to heal
Whether you’re chasing hidden rewards or just trying not to slip on glimmering ice, Frosty Funland promises a winter blast.
