PUBG hits 5 million mark on Xbox

PUBG has been a real phenomenon for PC gamers throughout 2017 accumulating over 30 million users and has been released on consoles at the end of the year. And yesterday it has hit a milestone of 5 million users - a very solid number considering it has been an exclusive for Xbox and unfortunately no official date for Playstation users yet.

To celebrate this achievment the community will be awarded with an exclusive jacket skin;hopefully PC users would receive a new scar skin in the near future.

Here is the official announce:

his week we’re celebrating yet another milestone for PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG) on Xbox One: we have now passed 5M players! We’re very excited that the community continues to grow – reaching over 5 million players in less than 3 months is a major accomplishment and we’re happy so many of you are enjoying the game.

We’ve also greatly appreciated all the feedback received from the community which is helping us create the best and most realistic Battle Royale experience. We just released the ninth optimization patch on March 2, which improved vehicle feedback, sound effects, matchmaking and more, and last week we shared our spring development roadmap with details on what you should expect to see in the weeks to come, including the release of the 2nd map, Miramar. You can read more details here.

In recognition of reaching the 5M player milestone, we have a few treats to share. Today we’re debuting a new video asset for PUBG featuring – you! Well, not all 5 million of you, but some of you – our amazing community of players around the world. We’ve loved watching your gameplay stories and moments in PUBG.

We’re also celebrating interesting gameplay achievements since launch in an infographic meant for sharing.
