PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds Full Game Available Now on Xbox

3.5
Everything’s coming up roses for PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds for Xbox One following its showcase at PAX West this weekend, as Microsoft has revealed some new details about the hit multiplayer game in a new blog post.

The publisher has reported that the game’s Xbox community has reached nine million players, a huge climb from the five million that were reported earlier this year. Not bad at all for a title that’s been sitting in Game Preview mode since its release last December.

But there’s news about that as well, as Microsoft has finally given PUBG the Full Product release, upgrading it from Game Preview. The game has been updated to reflect this, not only including a number of refinements, but also the inclusion of the new Sanhok Map, making its debut in the console version for the first time. It can be purchased through the Xbox Live Marketplace.

In addition, a new Event Pass is available, providing access to a number of activities that will be available for the game as it goes on.

Furthermore, Microsoft has assured that they’re working closely with PUBG Corp. to keep the game updated, with optimizations and other features being improved as time goes on. An exciting roadmap of new features will also be revealed, showcasing what’s to come in the months ahead -- including a new Snow Map that will no doubt arrive in time for the holidays.

The game is available for purchased at $29.99, either in physical or digital format depending on what you prefer. If you purchased the previous Game Preview version, you’ll be updated to the full game at no additional charge. (This also includes the retail version.)
We’ll let you know what other updates are being planned for the game in the months ahead as soon as they’re available. In the meantime, if you haven’t jumped in yet, give the game a try and see how much has improved since its release. Hopefully we’ll see its best days to come, especially with the upcoming features and possible events.

PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds is available now for Xbox One, as well as PC and mobile devices.

Glad it got a full release, usually some games don't even leave the early access.

Jimbo I bought this on console and it was possibly the worst idea ever. Hopefully it's better now.

I played this around 3 months ago on the console, and the input delay was terrible on the controller. I hope there have been optimization patches since then, because when I personally played it, I didn't feel like it was ready to be fully released.

Absolutely shit on console lol, on PC is decent but not on xbox

Why does everyone hate pubg on Xbox. I have been playing it pretty heavy since it came out on Xbox one. The only problems I have been irritated at is the crashes which got fixed a long time ago. The only other thing is the play dough buildings but I'm told that on the Xbox one X that it's fine so it's just a power issue on the regular ones, nothing game breaking. I think it's a great game, although I'm not fond of the game pass

Everyone who hasn't played the game in over 5 months and still thinks the game broken.

IT ISNT, SIMPLE AS THAT.
