The development team behind PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds has released a new patch for Xbox One this morning.
Like previous patches, this patch focuses on “continued performance optimization, and stability improvements“. Some of the game’s textures have been changed to improve graphical performance, however, it is unknown at the time of this writing if these changes make the game appear worse or better than before.
Additionally, the inventory screen has been improved, enabling players to focus their attention on their surrounding areas instead of fumbling with their inventory management. One welcome update is that you can quickly scroll through your inventory using the left and right triggers.
A full breakdown of the patch notes are shown below:
