The Apollo Project EVO, a concept vehicle that reflects the company’s engineering ambitions, will be offered in three color variants:

The vehicle’s distinctive styling, including its butterfly doors and sharp contours, has been adapted for gameplay while maintaining its signature look.
Customization Options and Unlockable Rewards
In addition to the vehicles, players can access a range of Apollo-themed cosmetic items. These include:
- Apollo Parachute
- Apollo Ornament
- Apollo Space Gift
Each item reflects the brand’s high-performance aesthetic and allows players to personalize their in-game experience.
Players who collect all seven available vehicle colorways will unlock exclusive in-game effects, adding an incentive for completion-focused gameplay.
Part of PUBG MOBILE’s 8th Anniversary Celebration
The collaboration coincides with PUBG MOBILE’s eighth anniversary, a milestone for a title that has maintained a strong global presence since its launch. Similar to major live-service games in the U.S. market, such as Fortnite and Call of Duty: Mobile, the game continues to rely on limited-time partnerships and branded content to retain player engagement.
These collaborations often blend entertainment, fashion, and automotive brands—reflecting a broader trend in gaming where virtual environments serve as marketing platforms for real-world products.
