You can drop into a match on Mumen Rider’s bicycle, and the parachute has One-Punch Man printed on it. KRAFTON has announced a collaboration between PUBG MOBILE and the anime One-Punch Man, and the Korean press release puts the period at September 20 to October 20, 2026 [1]. This article is current as of September 21, 2026.

Six character sets and three casual outfits

The character sets named in the press release are Saitama, Genos, Terrible Tornado, Hellish Blizzard, Watchdog Man and Garou. Separate outfit sets come alongside them: the Ordinary Hero Set, the Watchdog Man Set and The Strongest Man on Earth Set [1]. The English announcement, as carried by an overseas outlet, lists Garou as two sets, Ver.1 and Ver.2 [3].

A grocery bag where the frying pan used to be

There are four vehicle and gear items. The Phoenix Man Glider, the Mumen Rider Bicycle and the One-Punch Man Parachute are added, with the Mumen Rider Buddy along for the ride. Weapon skins cover the One-Punch Man Kar98K and the Grocery Bag Machete, and two emotes, Justice Enforcement and Fist of Flowing Water Crushing Rock, recreate moves from the anime inside the game [1].

Cosmetic items are numerous. The Saitama Helmet and the One-Punch Man Backpack each come with three upgrade levels, and the Saitama Ornament, Genos Ornament, Genos Space Gift and Watchdog Man Space Gift are added. For profiles there are the One-Punch Man Ver. Avatar, an Avatar Frame, and two graffiti designs, One-Punch Man Ver.1 and Ver.2 [1].

Saitama gets a statue in the lobby

In the Home ground space, players can place statues of Saitama, Genos and Garou. During matches, the Saitama Voice Pack and the Garou Ver.2 Voice Pack bring the original characters’ voices into the game [1].

The collectible is the One-Punch Man Card Pack, which contains Saitama, Genos, Terrible Tornado, Hellish Blizzard, King, Watchdog Man and Garou. Players gather it during the collaboration by taking part in dedicated events and through exchange [1]. How the sets and skins are distributed, which items involve payment, and at what price, is not stated in the press release. The card pack is the only item whose method of acquisition is described [1].

The end date differs by a day depending on the source

KRAFTON’s Korean press release gives October 20 as the end date [1], and Inven reported the same date [2]. The overseas outlet that carried the English announcement gives September 20 to October 19 [3]. None of the sources states a reference time. Anyone planning to claim items on the final day is safer finishing by the 19th.

PUBG MOBILE is free to download on the App Store and Google Play, and the press release points to the official community page for details [1].
