PUBG is Now Free on Xbox One For a Limited Time, With PS4 Version Soon to Follow
Last updated May 18, 2024
PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds needs no introduction for anyone who is a gamer. The battle royale game took the world by storm last year with its large-scale maps and realistic combat on PC and the Xbox One. The game features huge maps that accommodate up to a hundred players in a match competing against each other for the ultimate prize of chicken dinner. The game does not contain any form of DLC, but it comes with microtransactions that involve loot boxes with cosmetics. Players can either grind for in-game currency or pay with real money for boxes.
You can grab a discount of £10 off the usual £24.99 price and get a copy of the game for only £15 right now. The ‘physical’ copy of the game does not include a disc with the game files. Instead, you will receive a digital code that you can redeem on your Xbox One console along with some free stickers thrown into the package.
The game currently offers two maps and a third will be added soon. Players can play solo, with a friend or have a squad of four people. However, the number of players in a map is capped to 100 no matter which mode you play. The game’s performance leaves a little to be desired, but with steady patches rolling in for the Xbox One, the performance and stability have been getting better.
The Xbox One X benefits from its superior hardware compared to the standard Xbox One or the Xbox One S. It comes with HDR support, and you can connect your console to a 4K display for breathtaking graphics. The game is lagging behind the PC version when it comes to performance and updates, but once the game goes out of early access, the release patch should resolve any major performance issues or bugs. In case you want to join the bandwagon, today's your chance to grab the game for only £24.99.
