The Shelby family has officially taken over the battlegrounds with the new PUBG Mobile Peaky Blinders collaboration. According to the announcement from PUBG MOBILE, this special Peaky Blinders event is live now and runs until 5 February 2026. This isn’t just a simple skin drop — the update brings a narrative-driven event and iconic items from the show to iOS and Android players.
While we often see mobile apps and games partnering with major franchises, this one fits the battle royale vibe surprisingly well. If you have been waiting to roam Erangel in a flat cap, here is what you need to know.
PUBG Mobile Peaky Blinders: What’s Included in the Update
The PUBG Mobile Peaky Blinders collaboration focuses on the three main Shelby brothers. You can get exclusive character skins for Thomas, Arthur, and John Shelby in PUBG Mobile, including the highly sought-after Thomas Shelby skin, to use in matches. The developers have also added specific weapons and accessories to match the 1920s Birmingham aesthetic.
The cosmetic lineup includes:
- Character Skins: Thomas Shelby, Arthur Shelby, and John Shelby
- Weapons: Foggy City (Thompson SMG) and the Razor Newsboy Hat
- Vehicles: Misty Soul UAZ skin
- Accessories: Locked & Loaded Backpack and Peaky Blinders Parachute
- Emotes: Thumbs Up Approval and Menacing Stride
- Audio: Thomas Shelby Voice Pack
You can also decorate your in-game Home space with a specific wall decoration. Perhaps most importantly for fans of the show (which you can catch up on via our Netflix UAE updates), the iconic track “Red Right Hand” by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds is playable during the PUBG Mobile Peaky Blinders event.
The PUBG Mobile Peaky Blinders Shelby Trials narrative event
Beyond the paid cosmetics, the PUBG Mobile Peaky Blinders event introduces a gameplay event called “The Shelby Trials”. Unlike standard battle royale matches, this is a narrative-driven mode where you play through four scenarios inspired by the series.
The interesting hook here is player choice. You will have to make decisions during the story — choosing between relying on wit or brute force — which changes how the chapters unfold. Completing these PUBG Mobile Peaky Blinders trials rewards you with specific items, including voice packs and collectibles. It runs alongside the main game, offering a break from the usual competitive loop.
PUBG Mobile Peaky Blinders release date and availability
The PUBG Mobile Peaky Blinders content is available now and will remain in the game until 5 February 2026. As with most mobile collaborations, the base game remains free to download on the App Store and Google Play Store, though the specific skins will likely require in-game currency.
For console and PC gamers looking for hardware news, check out the recent Steam Machine leaks, but for now, the PUBG Mobile Peaky Blinders content is exclusive to the mobile version of PUBG.
