PUBG On Xbox Gets Performance Patch
Bluehole has released patch notes for its latest version of PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds on Xbox Game Preview, with some small changes aimed at improving the play experience for Xbox players.
In-game, players can expect new options to adjust aim acceleration in-game, and player weapon damage has moved up when combating vehicles, among other minor adjustments. Server and client-side FPS has also been slightly increased, which should be welcome news to players frustrated by stutter. Perhaps most importantly, the new patch attempts to address some of the crashes that are ending matches prematurely for some players.
Check out the full patch notes from Bluehole.

Our Take
The PUBG phenomenon recently found a new home on Microsoft’s home console, but many players have been frustrated by technical issues on the new platform. It’s good to see the developer making moves to improve the experience.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
