Looks like PUBG has been experiencing some connectivity and matchmaking problems recently, according to the game's official Twitter account. PUBG Corp. is looking to make things right, however, by offering players compensation by way of some special in-game items.

PUBG players who log in before October 23 at 5 PM PT/8 PM ET will be given the Black Beanie with Headphones items and 20,000 BP for the trouble the maintenance may have caused them.

We sincerely apologize for the negative experience caused by our recent server connectivity and matchmaking related issues. As compensation, we will be gifting all PC players the Black Beanie with Headphones item along with 20,000 BP. Log in to PUBG by 5pm PDT on Oct 23 to claim. pic.twitter.com/CW5L8nf25z

PUBG is planning to welcome its previously-teased Halloween event, which will bring a variety of cool skins, though we don't know when, exactly, we can expect to see them drop.

Once a date is announced, we'll make sure you know exactly when you can get your hands on the Halloween goodies. Stay tuned to Shacknews for updates on that front.
