PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS continues to draw in players across the globe, but while its popularity remains, nothing lasts forever. With PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S in their primes, the team has decided now is the time to finally pull the plug on the game's last-gen iterations. The announcement was made via the PUBG website:

Hello players, Today, we'd like to share an important update regarding the PUBG Console service. As mentioned in our 2025 roadmap, we've been preparing to transition PUBG Console to current-generation consoles. Starting November 13, PUBG Console will be supported only on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S.
This shift is a necessary step toward aligning PUBG Console with current-gen consoles. To provide our players with a more stable gameplay environment on console and ensure a smoother, more seamless experience with future updates, we've decided to transition to current-gen consoles. Following this transition, console players will see improved visuals and more stable frame rates. In addition, we expect to reduce ongoing crash issues through memory-related optimizations.
As part of this transition, we will be ending support for PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. It weighs heavily on us to deliver this news to our console players who have enjoyed PUBG on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One for so many years.

The PUBG team states that once the transition to current-gen consoles occurs, PlayStation users will need to manually update the game, while Xbox users will be able to just boot up and start playing. Play data will, naturally, carry over to the new platforms.
