Xbox fans, we know you\u2019ve been waiting and we\u2019re so excited to finally be able to say it \u2013 PlayerUnknown\u2019s Battlegrounds<\/em> is coming to Xbox One as a console launch exclusive through the Xbox Game Preview program on December 12, 2017!<\/p>\n

We shared this news at Paris Games Week today, where Brendan Greene \u2013 aka PlayerUnknown \u2013 and I opened the Xbox booth with Aaron Greenberg, General Manager of Xbox Games Marketing.<\/p>\n

Beginning December 12, Xbox fans will be able to play PUBG<\/em> while it\u2019s still in early access through the Xbox Game Preview program. We\u2019re approaching development on Xbox One with the same community-driven focus that we\u2019ve taken with the game on PC. As a result, the ultimate battle royale experience that fans play on Xbox One will be slightly different than what players know today on PC.<\/p>\n

In addition to announcing Xbox\u2019s XGP launch date on December 12, we also shared the exciting news that we\u2019re on track to launch 1.0 for the PC version in late December.\u00a0 This has been an amazing year for us and launching both 1.0 on PC and on Xbox through Xbox Game Preview are huge milestones for the team. I\u2019m incredibly proud of how far we\u2019ve come in such a short time, but I\u2019m even more excited to say that we\u2019re just getting started.<\/p>\n

Both versions are being developed at the same time, but they both have their own separate roadmaps. Various Xbox One features and functionality will change and come online over time just like they have on PC, with our goal being to have both versions align to each other as soon as possible. Feedback as you know has been critical to the game\u2019s success, so beginning December 12 we want to hear from Xbox fans on what they think about PUBG<\/em> and how we can make the best version of the game possible.<\/p>\n

\"PUBG<\/p>\n

In celebration of PUBG\u2019s<\/em> upcoming launch on Xbox One, we\u2019ve collaborated closely with the team at Xbox to create three special, limited-edition cosmetic packs \u2013 the PUBG Warrior Pack, the PUBG Accessory Pack and the PUBG Tracksuit Pack. These packs are exclusive to Xbox fans as standalone offers available for a limited time and as there are no plans to feature any in-game purchases in the Xbox Game Preview version, are the only items that can be purchased during the preview period. We\u2019re super excited to be able to bring these to Xbox One fans who have been eagerly awaiting the game as a special thank you for your patience and passion for PUBG<\/em>. We\u2019ll be sharing more details on timing and pricing in the weeks ahead.<\/p>\n

If you are attending Paris Games Week, be sure to come by the Xbox booth and check out \u201cThe Wall.\u201d We\u2019ve set up a massive 50-person gameplay experience where players can come battle it out in a series of live matches that will be nothing short of epic. Having everybody in a match together all in one room is really special and is going to be a lot of fun.<\/p>\n

Thank you to the entire PUBG<\/em> community for providing feedback and making our game such a success already. We\u2019re working hard with our partners at Microsoft to bring PUBG<\/em> as a console launch exclusive on Xbox One through the Xbox Game Preview program, and we can\u2019t wait to meet you on the island on December 12!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
