If you liked Dracula’s Castle in last year’s Halloween update, get ready for even bigger and scarier upgrade.
Surrounded by thick bushes, huge waterfalls, and greenish skies, the Magic Mirror Castle makes stage for close fights.
Inside, you can find King’s Crates with loot and magical powers.
Plus, meet Ghosty, your cute but strong spirit companion who can revive teammates when you are busy fighting and even heal you mid-flight, mid-run, or during firefights.

Supernatural Abilities: Ghosty’s Bag of Tricks

From spooky crates, you will get abilities which break normal PUBG Mobile gameplay rules. Primary skills includes Ghost Balloon, which turns Ghosty into a hot-air balloon to fly over the map, and Magic Shield, a 3,000-HP barrier that blocks bullets and grenades and pushes enemies back. Secondary skills are Speed Boost, where Ghosty acts like thruster to speed up your running, and Enemy Locator, which shows nearby enemies for a short time. Players can carry up to three primary skills and four or five secondary skills, with option to upgrade them by collect duplicates.
