History
Introduced Patch 10.20
Vaulted Patch 11.0

The Shield Bubble was a Rare and Epic utility item in Battle Royale introduced in v10.20. It resembles a grenade that can be thrown and attached to anything except for other players. When it attaches it will create a giant transparent dome ("bubble") around the item. It is unvulnerable to projectiles and explosives. Nothing can be shot through it from the inside and outside, but players can walk through it. The bubble will automatically disappear after 30 seconds. To make the bubble disappear immediately, you have to destroy the attached item inside the bubble by simply using a weapon or your pickaxe. The Shield Bubble can also be attached on vehicles. That way you can move the bubble around wherever you want.

The Shield Bubble was vaulted with Chapter 2 Season 1 due to the item pool being narrowed down to more basic items. It is currently only available in the Creative game mode.

The Rare Shield Bubble and the new Epic Shield Bubble+ (which has gives you the Hop Rock effect when inside) were unvaulted in the Spy Games LTMs during the Spy Games event in Chapter 2, Season 2.

Strategy[]

  • The bubble itself can be moved around by either placing the item on a vehicle or placing it on a floor and editing it. This can prove extremely in late-game circles and can even negate fall damage.
  • Shield Bubbles prove more effective in Tilted Town, where building is not allowed.
  • Do note that players can still shoot others while inside of a bubble. Because of this, do not camp inside of a shield bubble and not try to dodge others.
