PUBG test servers get replay mode in the lead-up to version 1.0

PUBG test servers have had replay mode added ahead of the game’s big version 1.0 push on PC.

The game’s latest test build adds a replay menu that lets a player record the action up to 1km around his or herself. A total of 20 replays can be saved and accessed for later review.

Other tweaks have been made to the test servers — they’re fully detailed in the patch notes below.
