In the bustling flea market of battle royale cosmetics, June 2022 landed in PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS like a tumbleweed with a corporate credit card. Krafton rolled out a store update that mixed esports glory, cowboy cosplay, partner mascots, and a melancholy clearance aisle. For players who logged in during that long-ago summer, it was a month of tactical decisions: buy the dragon hoodie, or save G-COIN for the next progressive weapon? In 2026, those windows are shut, but the archive still smells of gunpowder and impulse purchases. 🤠

PUBG Nations Cup 2022: Cheer First, Dress Later

The headline act was PUBG Nations Cup 2022, an esports event that invited players to purchase voting coupons through the All-in-one Bundle and cheer for their favorite battle royale athletes. The PC crowd could also spend Esports Points (EP) at the Esports Point Shop. The PNC 2022 Tech Vest (Level 2) cost 75,000 EP, while a Contraband Coupon went for 2,500 EP, limited to 60 purchases per account. The sales window was brief enough to make a stopwatch nervous.

Platform Start End
PC June 7/8 after maintenance June 17
Console June 15/16 after maintenance June 28/29

High Noon: Cowboys, Bounty Hunters, and Wallet Duels

Next came High Noon, a new item series for players who wanted to look like the most Wanted gunslinger on the server. The Desperado, Urban Cowgirl, and Deputy costume sets each asked 1,490 G-COIN. Smaller sets like Wanted and Lawman cost 650 G-COIN. Individual pieces ranged from 200 G-COIN boots to 990 G-COIN dusters and jackets. Backpacks and helmets from the Wanted and Lawman lines were 500 G-COIN each. The emote list included Victory Dance 88, Victory Dance 89, and Cell Phone Photo.

The sales period for High Noon stretched from June 21/22 until December 13/14 on PC and December 21/22 on console. That is less a sale and more a six-month hostage negotiation with a wardrobe.

Partner Skins: A Green Dragon and a Blue Mascot

Krafton also invited two partners to the collaboration party. LATAM partner Netenho brought a green dragon and a Chicken Dinner appetite. Netenho's Sweatshirt and Sweatpants cost 500 G-COIN each, while Netenho's SCAR-L cost 990 G-COIN. CN partner SanYang arrived with a blue mascot and a similar lineup: hoodie, sweatpants, and SCAR-L. 🐉

Both partner skin sets ran from June 28/29 to September 20/21, giving players a whole summer to decide whether a dragon or a blue blob matched their tactical aesthetic.

Darkest Depths: A Beryl M762 Rises from the Abyss

The progressive weapon skin [PROGRESSIVE] Darkest Depths – Beryl M762 arrived with underwater menace. A June 8 update adjusted unlockable skin levels at the Hideout: the Killfeed Skin moved from Level 6 to Level 9, while the Loot Crate Skin moved from Level 9 to Level 6. The sales period lasted from June 7/8 until September 29/30.

Last Call: Crates, Vigilantes, Nameplates, and Monsters

June 2022 was also a month of goodbyes. The Random Crates obtainable with BP on PC were leaving the Store on July 12/13, giving players a final chance to crack them open for outfits, weapon skins, or contraband coupons. The Vigilante Collection, featuring Blood Hound and Vigilante sets, ended on June 12/13 for PC and June 20/21 for console. Nameplates such as The Returned, Gunsmoke, Deco Darling, and Big Bang disappeared on June 21/22 for PC and June 29/30 for console.

TH partner Ezqelusia's monstrous goods also left on June 28/29. The enchanting undersea spell of the Mermaid, Divemaster, and Lobster sets, plus the 'Ocean Fantasy' Aquarail, ended on June 28/29 for PC and July 6/7 for console. The XIA HANA collaborative emote tapped its way out on July 5/6 for PC and July 13/14 for console. The Galaxy Squad Survivor Pass packs ended on July 5/6 for PC and July 14 for console. 🌊

Your Shop Closes Its Doors

Finally, Your Shop had its service end date: June 7/8 on PC and June 15/16 on console. It was a pop-up restaurant that vanished before dessert, leaving players to mourn discounts they had not yet claimed. 🛒

A 2026 Postcard from the Past

By 2026, the June 2022 store update is a time capsule. Krafton noted that items may reappear through other in-game platforms such as Your Shop, events, and promotions even after their sales periods, and sales dates were always subject to change. That caveat turned the whole month into a yard sale at the end of the universe: thrilling, chaotic, and legally non-binding. For collectors, the lesson is simple. In PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS, fashion is temporary, but the memory of a cowboy hat bought at 3 a.m. is forever.
