PUBG came out on Xbox One exactly a week ago, and it’s time for its first ever patch on the platform. As was the case on Steam, with the PC Early Access version of PUBG, players should expect constant PUBG patch on Xbox One.
The first PUBG patch brings improvements to the game’s performance and aesthetics which is not bad, given that many players are complaining about the performance of the game on Xbox One, even if it has already reached the remarkable figure of one million users on the Microsoft console.
The patch will be released today at 1 AM PST / 10 AM CET / 6 PM KST. All you have to do is restart your Xbox One console to download the update, even if it does not seem that there will be any maintenance.
In addition to bug fixes, the patch makes equipment icons visible on the HUD and player icons are more visible on the world map. The update disables some keyboard functions: at the time of the launch, in fact, the players discovered that it is possible to use a keyboard to view the map, move and access an extended settings menu.
