Outlining the structure of Karakin, it is a 2X2 KM map featured on the coast of Northern Africa. However, PUBG players also call it a Paced Map as the map is so tiny and high on action. If we compare it with Sanhok, the Karakin is half of it. Moreover, players can also face difficulties to loot top tier weapons which makes Winchester must equipped weapon in Karakin.

The latest 6.1 update also brings the motor glider vehicle in PUBG, which was introduced in PUBG Lab on Jan 15. As reported on the official blog, 10 Motor Gliders will spawn across the map each game, across 40 potential locations. Apart from this, players are also required to keep a gas can in their inventory as the Motor Glider will be spawned without gas.
