PUBG 4.5 Naruto Top-Up: DuitNow QR for Malaysia 2026
Published: 2026-07-13
PUBG Mobile 4.5 went live on 9 July 2026 and the whole map now smells like ramen. The Ninjas Assemble season runs until 7 September, drops a giant Nine-Tails into Erangel, and gives every player a Chakra bar. Malaysian squads dropping into KL cafés this week will need UC fast: 900 UC for the Premium Prize Path, another 720 for the A20 Elite Pass. That is RM 63-plus in a single sitting, so the payment rail you pick matters more than the loadout you drafted at Pochinki.
This guide walks through the cheapest, fastest way to fund the Naruto season from a Malaysian bank or e-wallet: DuitNow QR straight into REDX Game's PUBG Mobile UC page. No IGN hunts on Apple App Store MY, no card 3DS timeout at 3am, no FX conversion between USD and MYR that quietly eats fifteen percent off every top-up before Krafton even sees it. Just scan, tap, and get the UC in your account before the next Chunin Exam finals arena rotation.
Version 4.5 dropped 9 July, so what changed
KRAFTON pitched this as the game's eighth-anniversary hero drop, and the numbers back it up. Studio Pierrot, the animation house behind the original Naruto Shippuden run, supplied an exclusive short played inside the lobby. More than USD 600 worth of free skins sit inside the event track, including the Young Naruto set and the 4th Hokage Cloak.
The mode itself is called NARUTO: Ninjas Assemble. It layers Hidden Leaf Village geometry onto Erangel, Livik, and Sanhok. On Erangel, the Severny compound has been replaced by Konoha proper: Hokage Rock, Hokage Mansion, the Ninja Academy, Ichiraku Ramen, the Chunin Exam finals arena, and the Valley of the End. Rozhok's northern flank now looks like a shinobi drop zone.
"The largest-scale collaboration in the history of PUBG Mobile," KRAFTON stated in its 8 July press release, timed to the game's eighth anniversary.
Every player carries a Chakra meter that can be spent on Rasengan, Chidori, Flying Raijin, or Shadow Clone Jutsu, and killing the roaming Nine-Tails boss drops the Tailed Beast Cloak into the loot pool. Ninjutsu abilities bypass cover in ways no PUBG Mobile skill has done before, which is why the ranked meta this fortnight looks nothing like the settled Version 4.4 ladder.
Weapon tuning slipped in quietly under the collab noise, with QBZ, M762, and Kar98K each receiving new upgrade levels that layer fresh hit effects and visual feedback onto the base guns. The Kar98K in particular now feels heavier at range, and the QBZ recoil pattern rewards tap-fire discipline that April's sprayers never bothered to learn. Spider-Man: Brand New Day arrives 30 July with its own gadgets, and Ferrari-themed vehicle skins slot in through Lucky Spin events. If you sleep on July, September closes fast and the layered content becomes hard to catch up on.
Erangel Hidden Leaf: the 4.5 map changes that matter
Konoha replacing Severny changes rotations for the whole east side of Erangel. Rozhok drop teams used to funnel north-west toward School; now the strong loot pockets sit inside Hokage Rock and Naruto's Apartment, which pulls fights toward the ridge. Late-circle play through Mylta favours players who learned the Valley of the End compound geometry in the first week.
Livik's version compresses the Hidden Leaf layout into a tighter footprint that plays much faster in early circles, while Sanhok's leans green with jungle chase lanes threading between the ninja landmarks. Both drop the Nine-Tails encounter and both hand out Chakra-favoured pickups in the new zones, so the meta shift is not limited to Erangel. Sea Odyssey, the returning underwater ruins mode, cycles in alongside Ninjas Assemble on a rotating queue, making the map picker deeper than any patch in 2025.
Yoodo Gank scrimmed the new Erangel in a Petaling Jaya bootcamp within 48 hours of the patch dropping, giving Malaysian PMPL veterans a real ridge-play advantage while the rest of the ranked ladder is still figuring out Konoha rotations. Senang gila to blame chakra; tough to blame the map.
Pro-tier analysis from the first weekend shows Rasengan-first squads winning 62 percent of engagements at Hokage Rock versus 44 percent for Chidori-first squads, an 18-point gap that traces back to the throw arc rather than the base damage numbers. The Rasengan throw range clears cover angles that Chidori's dash simply cannot reach, especially when targets sit on Hokage Rock's western outcrop. Rasengan is the pick for now; the ranked ladder rewards those who commit.
UC math for the Naruto Prize Path and A20 Elite Pass
Here is the pack-by-pack MYR ladder on REDX Game's PUBG Mobile Global page (Malaysian region, MYR-only, no FX surcharge):
PackREDX (MYR)Sen per UCApple App Store MY (est.)Saving vs Apple
60 UCRM 4.207.00RM 4.90RM 0.70 (14.3%)
325 UC (+25 bonus)RM 21.006.46RM 24.90RM 3.90 (15.7%)
660 UC (+60 bonus)RM 42.006.36RM 49.90RM 7.90 (15.8%)
1,800 UC (+300 bonus)RM 105.005.83RM 124.00RM 19.00 (15.3%)
3,850 UC (+700 bonus)RM 210.005.45RM 249.00RM 39.00 (15.7%)
8,100 UC (+1,600 bonus)RM 420.005.19RM 498.00RM 78.00 (15.7%)
The Naruto Premium Prize Path costs 900 UC. The A20 Royal Pass Elite tier is 720 UC; Elite Plus with the 25-level boost is 1,920 UC. Prize Path plus Elite Plus together is 2,820 UC. The cleanest coverage is the 3,850 UC pack at RM 210, which buys both and leaves 1,030 UC in the bank for the mid-season Spider-Man crate that lands 30 July.
Sen per UC is the number to watch. The 8,100 UC pack sits at 5.19 sen, a 26 percent per-UC discount versus the 60 UC starter, but almost nobody drops RM 420 in a single tap for one collab window that closes in sixty days. For a Naruto completionist chasing the Prize Path plus Elite Plus without splitting into two orders, the sweet-spot pack is the 3,850. Murah giler for what it delivers.
The Apple App Store MY estimates above assume the standard Apple regional tier (~15-16 percent above MYR gateway pricing across the ladder). A Malaysian player who tops up 3,850 UC through Apple ID would pay roughly RM 39 more per purchase than the same UC bought from REDX Game with a Malaysian payment rail. Over three seasons that is a full extra Elite Pass.
How to top up PUBG UC via DuitNow QR at REDX Game
DuitNow QR is Bank Negara Malaysia's national instant-payment scheme, operated by PayNet and mandated across every licensed bank and e-wallet in the country. Every major Malaysian bank app and every big e-wallet (Touch 'n Go, GrabPay, Boost, Shopee Pay, MAE) reads the same QR at the same rail. Settlement is under five seconds bank-to-merchant and the buyer fee is zero, which is why the method has quietly become the default for Malaysian gaming top-ups. Tak perlu tunggu lama.
Six steps and you are back in queue:
- Open redxgame.com/order/direct-top-up/pubg-mobile-global on your phone browser.
- Enter your PUBG Mobile Global Character ID (the numeric ID from the game lobby, not your nickname). Region: Global.
- Choose the UC pack. Most Naruto players pick 3,850 UC (RM 210) for full Prize Path plus Elite Plus coverage.
- Select DuitNow QR as the payment method at checkout. The site displays a fresh QR pinned to your order ID.
- Scan the QR inside your bank app or e-wallet. Maybank2u, TnG eWallet, GrabPay, Boost, Shopee Pay, and MAE all support DuitNow QR.
- Confirm. UC lands in your PUBG account within one to three minutes, matching the advertised delivery window.
The Character ID is easy to miss. Open PUBG Mobile, tap your profile portrait top-left, and copy the 10-digit ID under your name. Wrong ID means wrong account gets the UC, and rollbacks take support tickets. Boleh tahan quick, but only if you paste it once and paste it right.
Johor Bahru and Ipoh players on cross-border 5G sometimes see the QR image lag; refresh the page, and the QR regenerates without cancelling the order. The order ID stays pinned until payment or timeout.
What Malaysian PUBG players ask about the 4.5 top-up
Which payment method clears fastest for the Naruto Prize Path deadline?
DuitNow QR clears in under five seconds bank-to-merchant, then REDX Game processes the UC within one to three minutes after confirmation. TnG eWallet direct pay is similarly quick. Credit-card 3DS can add two to five minutes on some Malaysian issuers, which matters if you are chasing the 7 September cutoff.
Do I get the +bonus UC on the 660 pack when I top up via the REDX PUBG Mobile page?
Yes. The +60 bonus, +300 bonus, and +700 bonus tiers are the standard Krafton first-purchase-per-pack bonuses and REDX Game routes them the same way Krafton does. First-top-up bonus stacks on the first purchase of each pack size.
Is the Nine-Tails boss guaranteed on every match?
No. Kurama spawns randomly across Erangel matches during Ninjas Assemble. Squads on the Hokage Rock side of the ridge encounter the boss more often, according to the first-weekend PMPL SEA scrim data. The pull radius seems tuned toward Konoha.
What is the sen-per-UC floor for a Malaysian buyer?
5.19 sen at the 8,100 UC pack (RM 420). The 3,850 pack sits at 5.45 sen and is the practical pick for most Malaysian buyers; a Naruto Prize Path plus Elite Plus fits inside it with 1,030 UC left over.
Does Version 4.5 support DuitNow QR through my bank's own app, or only through e-wallets?
Both. Maybank2u, CIMB Clicks, Public Bank PBe, and Hong Leong Connect all read the same DuitNow QR that TnG eWallet and Boost read. There is no separate "bank-only" QR or "e-wallet-only" QR; the network is unified under Bank Negara's PayNet.
What happens if the UC does not arrive after five minutes?
The advertised window is one to three minutes. If nothing lands in five, the order dashboard shows the Krafton API status. Support responds during KL business hours; the order ID plus payment reference is enough to trigger a rollback or a manual push. Do not re-order, because the Character ID would receive the UC twice.
Version 4.5 closes 7 September, plan the burst not the drip
Naruto Shippuden season runs 60 days. A Malaysian squad landing 900 UC on the Prize Path plus 720 UC on the Elite Pass at week one gets the full skin cascade before the Spider-Man collab crowds it out on 30 July. Stagger the top-ups and you leave rewards on the table. Front-load the burst through DuitNow QR into REDX Game and the whole season pays for itself in skin resale value inside two ranked resets.
The MYR sen-per-UC floor at 5.19 through the 8,100 pack, MYR-only pricing, no FX conversion, no App Store surcharge, is the real edge here. Malaysian players who paid RM 249 for the same 3,850 pack on Apple ID paid roughly 15.7 percent extra for the identical UC balance. That is a real gap and it compounds season by season.
