The veteran battle royale game previously said it would transition its console version to supporting just the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S later this year. Now, we know when. In a statement to the game's playerbase, the game's development team said this decision "weighs heavily" after so many years, but was now a "necessary step" in order to better support the game's PS5 and Xbox Series X/S builds, and ensure they were not being held back any further.

PUBG will remain downloadable and playable on PS4 and Xbox One until November 13, 2025, after which it will no longer be accessible. Account details and purchased items will be preserved, however, if players log in on a PS5 or Xbox Series X/S in future.
