Supported Specs After Transition to Current-Gen Consoles
Following the transition of PUBG Console to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S on November 13, the supported specifications will be as follows:
Xbox Series S Xbox Series X PlayStation 5 PlayStation 5 Pro Resolution 1080p/1440p 2160p 1440p 2160p FPS 60fps/30fps 60fps 60fps 60fps Xbox Series S supports either 1080p at 60fps or 1440p at 30fps, and you can choose between the two settings.
Xbox Series X and PlayStation 5 Pro support Dynamic 4K resolution.
The supported specifications for current-gen consoles were determined through extensive technical review and internal testing to ensure the most stable and optimized PUBG Console gameplay experience. In particular, memory and graphical specifications have been carefully configured with future content updates in mind, to ensure the system is well-prepared to support them smoothly.
As PUBG Console supports cross-play between platforms, fairness across all platforms was one of our top priorities. With this in mind, our goal is to provide a stable 60fps experience across all platforms. To account for differences in hardware performance, Xbox Series S will offer selectable options such as Resolution Mode and Performance Mode.
