After a day’s testing on the PUBG Test Server, the developers have deemed the latest update ready for live servers. To implement the patch, servers will have to be taken offline for an expected two hours. Downtime will begin today (January 31) at 6 p.m. PT.
Here’s the tweet confirming the downtime:
PC players, we will be moving the current test build to our live servers on Jan 31 6PM PST/ Feb 1 3AM CET. The maintenance is expected to last 2 hours. New leaderboard season will be opened once the servers go live again. You can read the patch notes here: https://t.co/WytmUlsDCy
