PUBG has been around for quite some time, and lots of gamers might have matured and changed their interests over time. Maybe players chose their name when they were 10 and now feel that ‘deadlykiller66’ doesn’t hold up anymore.

Whatever the case is, there is nothing to worry about, as PUBG allows players to change their in-game names. The process is fairly straightforward but can be a bit confusing for beginners. For those who don’t know how to change the name in PUBG, this guide will be a huge help.

How to Change the In-Game Name in PUBG

To change the name in PUBG, players will need a Rename Card, which costs 180 UC (in-game currency). Fortunately, the game also gives players a free Rename Card, but only once when they reach level 10. So the odds are that those who have never changed their name in PUBG may already have the card in their inventory.

In the past, PUBG used to give a free card to players who didn’t play the game for around 25-30 days. However, this practice has been discontinued, and as of now, the only way to get a rename card is to purchase it by spending 180 UC.

PUBG Mobile

Here’s how PUBG Mobile players can get a Rename Card:

  • Launch PUBG Mobile and click on the ‘cart’ shaped icon on the top-right corner of the screen.
  • Once there, click ‘Treasures’ and scroll down to find the Rename Card. This card has ‘ID’ written over it.
  • Select Rename Card and click the ‘180 UC’ option on the bottom left corner. Once done, click ‘Purchase’ to confirm the decision.

PUBG PC

The process of purchasing the Rename Card is slightly different on PUBG PC. Here’s how PC players can get a Rename Card:

  • To purchase the card, launch the game and click ‘Store’ on the top of the screen.
  • From there, players need to click ‘Items’ and then select the last option, i.e., ‘Utility.’
  • Next, click ‘Nickname Card’ and confirm the decision to make the purchase.

Once bought, players will find the Rename Card in their inventory. To change the name, go to ‘Inventory,’ choose Rename Card, and select ‘Use.’ Next, simply type the new name and click ‘Ok’ to save it.

It is important to point out that players can only change their in-game names once a day. And as mentioned earlier, the Rename Card costs 180 UC, so make sure to choose a name carefully.

PUBG is available now on Mobile, PC, PS4, and Xbox One.
