The patch will include a new Flora Menace mode, as well as the reintroduction of Vikendi and a few other game modes, such as Payload 2.0, Runic Power, Infection, Survive Till Dawn, and others, which were removed by the developers in order to improve and optimize the game.
When will the PUBG Mobile 1.6 update be available?
The PUBG Mobile 1.6 update is set to launch on September 14, 2021, at 5:00 a.m. UTC, though it may take a few hours to reach all devices.
PUBG Mobile 1.6 patch notes
Flora Menace mode

Alien plants known as Yarilo have infested Erangel. The Yarilo swiftly took over the major central urban centers after absorbing special energy and creating the Rejuvenation Barrier, which possesses healing abilities.
Cell Matrix will give random weapon drops and respawns to the players. (Picture: Krafton)
The invasion has caused the Cell Matrix, a massive spaceship that carries everyone’s hopes of escaping, to lose control. Investigate the Cell Matrix, regain the energy, and participate in epic battles with random weapon drops and respawns. To keep you well-supplied in war, contact DynaHex Supplies.
