Here’s the whole picture on PUBG’s shift from last‑gen to current‑gen consoles. Read on for all you need to know from November 13 onwards.
What’s changing on November 13?
PUBG: Battlegrounds is pulling the plug on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One support during live server maintenance on November 13, 2025. After that, you’ll only be able to drop in on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
In turn, PUBG: Battlegrounds launches on current-generation consoles on November 13. The king is dead, long live the king!
Will my PUBG account and purchases transfer?
No worries, your account, skins, and cosmetics are safe. Everything carries over automatically. Just log in on PS5 or Xbox Series X|S and you’re good to go. PS5 players will need to download the new version, while Xbox Series users get it instantly via Smart Delivery.
Why PUBG is shutting down PS4 and Xbox One
It’s all about boosting performance and future-proofing the game. By cutting PS4/Xbox One, Krafton can step up stability and visuals for everyone.
This isn’t just a PUBG thing. Other big titles like Genshin and Rust are ditching legacy consoles, too. Previous-gen consoles are 12 years old now. It’s time to let go.
