Revision - coli island - PUBG: Black Budget Wiki

Coli Island is the open-world setting of PUBG: Black Budget. It is described as an island at the edge of the world that is trapped in a time loop and consumed by a supernatural phenomenon called the Anomaly. Contractors deploy here to recover top-secret technology from an abandoned research facility and to uncover the truth behind the SAPIENS initiative.

Size and Layout

The island is an open world measuring 2.5 by 2.5 kilometers. It features varied biomes, multiple points of interest, and underground facilities to explore. Players move through this terrain using traversal options such as ziplines, vaulting, and clambering as they search for loot and objectives.

A Changing Environment

Coli Island is not a static map. The Anomaly gradually shrinks the playable area during a session, and the environment grows more unpredictable with every loop. This means the same locations can present very different challenges from one run to the next. For how the island shapes each session, see Gameplay and Extraction.

Significance

The island's secrets are central to the game's premise. The classified operation that sends Contractors to Coli is built around recovering technology and research lost on the island, making it both the playground and the central mystery of PUBG: Black Budget. The lore surrounding the island is detailed in Story and Setting.
