PUBG Mobile A21 Royale Pass Malaysia 2026: Bone Protocol Price Verdict
Published: 2026-09-20
Verdict first, since that is what you came for: the A21 Elite Pass at 720 UC is worth it if you already log in nightly, and Elite Pass Plus at 1,920 UC almost never is. Buy the 660 UC top-up on REDX Game's PUBG Mobile page and stack a 60 UC pack. That covers the base pass with 60 UC of change. It also undercuts the App Store tier by roughly RM 5 to RM 7. Bone Protocol runs 12 September to 12 November 2026, giving Malaysian players 61 days to grind the Exoframe Drifter Set at Level 100 without paying for jumps.
The 720 UC / 1,920 UC split is fixed by Tencent, not by any Malaysian retailer, and it has held stable across A18, A19 and A20. What changes each season is the reward line and the timeframe. For A21, the 61-day window sits squarely across the Malaysian mid-term school holiday and the PMPL MY Fall streaming spike, both of which cut into casual RP grinding time for anyone who works a normal Kuala Lumpur week. Elite Pass Plus, which grants a 25-level jump start, only earns back its cost for players who genuinely will not log in for weeks at a time.
Bone Protocol A21 in Numbers: What 720 UC Actually Gets You
Royale Pass A21 launched with the PUBG Mobile Version 4.6 update on 9 September 2026 and opened for purchase three days later. It runs 61 days and closes 12 November 2026 at 03:59 MYT, per the in-game countdown. Miss the window and the Bone Protocol rewards are gone.
The pass costs 720 UC for the Elite Pass and 1,920 UC for Elite Pass Plus. There is also a 360 UC upgrade card that covers only Levels 1 to 50, which is the tier most casual Malaysian players should think about before the full pass.
The Level 100 reward is the Exoframe Drifter Set, a dual-form outfit tied to the Midnight Hunters theme. Withering End, an upgradable Honey Badger, sits at Level 50 alongside the ASM Abakan and Mortar. Skins that upgrade through kills tend to hold value across future seasons better than a set that ages out with the theme.
Reaching Level 100 in 61 days needs about 5,000 RP points, or 82 points a day, which two crown-tier classic matches plus daily missions realistically cover for anyone playing after work in KL or Shah Alam. Weekend Weeklies fill any gap.

The Ringgit Math on Elite Pass and Elite Pass Plus
Here is where the pass either earns its keep or does not. At the 660 UC tier, REDX Game sits in the low-to-mid RM 30s per top-up. Add a small 60 UC pack (around RM 4 to RM 5) and the 720 UC Elite Pass lands close to RM 38 to RM 40 all-in, with 60 UC of change.
Elite Pass Plus at 1,920 UC needs the 1,800 UC pack plus a 300 UC top-up. On REDX Game's ladder, that lands in the RM 108 to RM 115 band, cheaper than the App Store tier by a clear MYR margin.
The reward math works like this: Elite Pass returns 900 UC through pass-level milestones and drops (Level 100 milestone included). That is a 180 UC surplus over the 720 UC you put in. Add the RP mission point bank and the crate coupon shards, and the pass pays for itself in UC alone by around Level 82 — realistic to hit by Week 6 for a nightly player.
Elite Pass Plus returns roughly 1,300 UC in in-pass drops and the 25-level jump on top. Do the arithmetic: you paid 1,200 UC extra (1,920 minus 720) for a 400 UC bump in in-pass returns plus a shortcut that saves you about 12 days of grind at the Level 82 break-even point, which is roughly one Wednesday-to-Sunday cycle for a nightly player in KL who queues after work. Not worth RM 70 for most Petaling Jaya squads. "Boleh tahan" if you travel for work and know you will miss weeks. Otherwise, no.
REDX vs App Store: Where the Ringgit Actually Goes
Malaysian PUBG players have three sane payment paths and one trap. Pay via the App Store or Google Play and the same UC ladder loads at the Apple or Google tax. Buy through REDX Game and the same UC lands with a Malaysian retailer margin. The fourth path is any competitor reseller that asks for your account password. Those do not need to exist here.
TierREDX Game (typical)App Store (typical)Ringgit saved
60 UC~RM 4.10RM 4.90~RM 0.80
325 UC~RM 21.50RM 22.90~RM 1.40
660 UC~RM 34.90RM 43.90~RM 9.00
1,800 UC~RM 96RM 108.90~RM 13.00
3,850 UC~RM 205RM 219.90~RM 15.00
8,100 UC~RM 429RM 439.90~RM 11.00
The 660 UC row is where the ringgit gap actually widens on PUBG Mobile. Nine ringgit off the pack that most nearly hits Elite Pass is more real value than any Royale Pass free reward. Payment on the REDX Game PUBG Mobile order page runs on DuitNow QR, TNG eWallet, Boost and FPX, with delivery in 1 to 3 minutes as advertised.
Steer clear of any site asking for your PUBG ID login credentials. Legit top-ups only need your character ID (numeric, not your password). Kalau ada orang mintak password, close the tab.
A21 Weekly Missions Timeline (MYT)
All times are Malaysia Standard Time (GMT+8). Weekly missions open Tuesdays and close 09:00 the following Tuesday. Skip one and you lose about 12 to 15 RP points.
- 12 to 16 Sep 2026 — opening week, initial catch-up bonus for late buyers.
- 3 to 9 Oct 2026 — the RP curve steepens; Elite buyers see the second UC drop here.
- 17 to 23 Oct 2026 — most nightly grinders reach Level 82, the pass break-even.
- 31 Oct to 6 Nov 2026 — the Exoframe Drifter grind finishes.
- 12 Nov 2026, 09:00 MYT: final Weeklies close, pass ends.
Homebois and Team SMG players streaming during PMPL MY 2026 Fall have already flagged the early-October spike, and Yamato of TODAK's side channel carries three Bahasa Malay walkthroughs of Midnight Hunters worth the ten minutes before you commit to the pass. Ipoh squads have posted their lobby times too.
The Elite Pass Plus Trap (and Two Cheaper Alternatives)
Elite Pass Plus is the seasonal upsell that catches Malaysian players who see "25 levels free" and skip the ringgit math. Two cheaper paths exist.
The first is the 360 UC RP Upgrade Card. It covers Levels 1 to 50, lands under RM 20 at REDX Game, and returns roughly 450 UC in mid-tier drops. Best fit if you know you will not finish.
The second is skipping the pass and putting the same RM 100 into two 1,800 UC top-ups for crate spins and the ACE Nomad Bundle. Wikipedia's summary of the game's monetisation model gives the wider context.
As the official PUBG Mobile 4.6 announcement put it, "A21 will offer collectors and players who like filling in their seasonal progression another chance to expand their collection." That phrasing aims at completionists, not casual queue-uppers. Memang best for the collector; not for everyone.
PUBG Mobile A21 Royale Pass FAQ (Malaysia)
When does A21 Bone Protocol end for Malaysian players?
12 November 2026, 03:59 MYT. Any RP progress after that resets. Cash in Weeklies by 09:00 MYT on 12 Nov to bank the last points.
Is the Elite Pass Plus worth 1,200 extra UC?
For most Malaysian nightly players, no. You pay RM 70 or so extra for a 400 UC bump in returns and a 25-level jump that saves 12 days of grind. Only worth it if you travel and know you will miss 2+ weeks.
Can I buy the Elite Pass with TNG eWallet or DuitNow QR?
Yes. Order 660 UC on REDX Game, pay via TNG, DuitNow QR, Boost or FPX, and the UC lands in your PUBG account in 1 to 3 minutes as advertised. Add a 60 UC pack to reach the 720 UC needed for the Elite Pass.
What is the cheapest UC tier per ringgit for A21?
The 660 UC tier gives the widest REDX-vs-App-Store ringgit gap on PUBG Mobile, roughly RM 9 saved per top-up. It is not the lowest sen-per-UC in absolute terms (the 8,100 UC pack wins that), but it is the best value at the pass-buying volume.
Will Bone Protocol rewards return in a later season?
No. Season passes in PUBG Mobile do not reissue rewards. If you want the Exoframe Drifter Set or the Withering End Honey Badger permanently, this is the only 61-day window.
Is a Malaysian PUBG UC reseller actually safe?
A legit reseller never asks for your PUBG account password. It only asks for your numeric character ID, the same field the in-game store uses. Payment on the REDX Game PUBG Mobile page runs through DuitNow, TNG, Boost or FPX, all Bank Negara-regulated Malaysian rails.
