PUBG Mobile x One-Punch Man Collab: Release Date, Skins & Rewards
2026-09-20
Saitama is coming to Erangel. It's official — PUBG Mobile is teaming up with One-Punch Man on September 20. The trailer just dropped, and it's our first real look at what's coming. Nine character sets. A themed Kar98k. A bicycle, a glider, a companion, a voice pack. It's a full lineup.
What caught my attention most is how the rewards get split up. This isn't just "spend UC, spin a wheel" like some past collabs. According to third-party reports, the event runs on three separate tracks: a free Perk Exchange Event, a 600 UC Prize Path, and two character-themed Lucky Spins. I'll break each one down below.
If you're following other PUBG Mobile crossovers, our PUBG Mobile Peter Parker's Gloves and PUBG Mobile Spider-Man Mode Return coverage has more details.
PUBG Mobile x One-Punch Man Event Overview
Here's the window: September 20 to October 19, 2026, packaged inside Version 4.6 — not the Bloodline Awakening update from September 9.
The official tagline is "ONE PUNCH TO WIN!" No dedicated gameplay mode this time — everything in the trailer takes place on standard Erangel, so this collab looks cosmetic-first.
PUBG Mobile x One-Punch Man Character Sets Preview
Nine character sets total. Five show up as premium Character Sets, and the other four get spread across different reward routes.
Full Character Set Lineup
The trailer opens with all nine sets shown together in one grid. It's a good way to see the whole roster at once — Saitama, Genos, both Garou versions, Terrible Tornado, Hellish Blizzard, King, Ordinary Hero, and Watchdog Man.
Saitama Character Set
The Saitama set keeps his classic look — yellow hero suit, glossy red gloves and boots, a round black-and-gold belt. Bald head, long white cape, the whole package. In the trailer, he adjusts his gloves, then throws a punch pose. Small detail — but fans will catch it.
Genos Character Set
Genos comes with short blond hair, a fitted dark top, and mechanical arms with visible plating and metal joints. His showcase moment is a flame kick, followed by an energy blast fired from his palm.
Garou Ver.1 Character Set
Garou Ver.1 has his familiar silver spiky hair and a tight black long-sleeved martial-arts shirt. Blue-white energy particles surround him in the showcase, which gives this set a cleaner, more controlled feel than Ver.2.
Garou Ver.2 Character Set
Garou Ver.2 goes a different direction — bright red hair, exposed upper body with scars, bandaged forearms, loose martial-arts trousers. He's shown mid-punch. Out of the two Garou sets, this one feels like the "after the fight" version.
Terrible Tornado Character Set
Terrible Tornado has green curly hair and a fitted black long-sleeved dress with high side openings. A green psychic aura wraps around her in the showcase shot.
Hellish Blizzard Character Set
Hellish Blizzard wears dark emerald hair, a long green dress with a high neckline and fitted waist, and dark tights. She's shown gathering energy in both hands, with the same green psychic aura as Terrible Tornado.
The Strongest Man on Earth Set (King)
This one's built around King — long blonde hair, three facial scars, blue hoodie, jeans. Behind him, a giant purple face projection appears with the Japanese sound effect text "ドツ."
Ordinary Hero Set
The Ordinary Hero set is Saitama's off-duty outfit — a red and white hoodie with a fist logo, jeans, green sneakers. This is the "grocery shopping" Saitama, not the hero one.
Watchdog Man Character Set
Watchdog Man is exactly what it sounds like — a full-body white dog suit with the face visible. He's shown in a crouching pose making dog-paw gestures. Honestly, this might be my favorite set in the whole lineup.
PUBG Mobile x One-Punch Man Themed Items and Weapon Skins
Character sets aren't the only thing in this collab. The trailer also shows a full range of themed items:
- One-Punch Man Backpack (Lv.3)
- Saitama Helmet (Lv.3)
- Grocery Bag – Machete (Lv.3)
- One Punch – Kar98k
- Mumen Rider Bicycle
- One-Punch Man Parachute
- Phoenix Man Glider
- Saitama Ornament
- Genos Ornament
- One Punch Man Voice Pack
A few of these get their own moment in the trailer, so let's go through them one at a time.
One Punch – Kar98k
This skin takes Saitama's glove and suit colors and puts them on the rifle. Bright yellow, high contrast — it stands out fast against the game's usual weapon finishes. You'll spot it across the map without trying.
Mumen Rider Bicycle
The Mumen Rider Bicycle is green, and it leaves a trail of sparks behind the wheels while you ride. That spark effect makes it easy to spot from far away, but it doesn't feel over the top. It fits the Mumen Rider theme without trying too hard.
Phoenix Man Glider
The Phoenix Man Glider spreads its wings out during the drop. Out of everything in this collab, this is probably the most visually detailed item.
Mumen Rider Buddy
The Mumen Rider Buddy is a chibi companion that follows you around the battleground. Small addition, sure, but it lightens up a lineup that's otherwise all about combat.
Saitama Helmet and One-Punch Man Backpack
Both items show up together in the trailer. The helmet is styled after Saitama's face — you'll know it the second you see it. The backpack goes with a black, yellow, and red color scheme, plus a fist logo on the front. Both pieces are Lv.3, meaning they'll swap out your standard helmet and backpack once you equip them.
Grocery Bag – Machete
This one's playful. The character holds a white shopping bag and triggers green energy effects on attack. It turns a basic melee weapon into something that actually matches the show's tone — Saitama running errands, but make it a weapon skin.
How the Rewards Are Split
The trailer only confirms two systems by name: Prize Path and Lucky Spin. But according to third-party reports, the actual structure has more moving parts than the video lets on.
Prize Path costs 600 UC to unlock and has 25 levels. Unlocking it hands you the red-haired Garou outfit right away. The rest of the levels give out character cosmetics and Lucky Coins as you go. Current mission rewards can add up to 302 Lucky Coins, and those coins work in either Lucky Spin.
Lucky Spin splits into two separate spins — one for Saitama, one for Terrible Tornado. You spend Lucky Coins on each for a randomized draw.
Perk Exchange Event is the free track. The main prize here is the King-themed outfit, plus his signature emote.
Conclusion
Nine character sets, a full set of themed items, and rewards split across a free Perk Exchange Event, a 600 UC Prize Path, and two character-themed Lucky Spin — that's what's landing in PUBG Mobile from September 20 to October 19.
