Last year, we saw the release of Miramar for Playerunknown’s Battleground for the PC. Now we finally have it for the Xbox One. This brand new map comes with a complete list of bug fixes and offers an experience that is more stable, across the board.
Xbox One
As far as general contents, here’s what you can expect:
- The addition of the new “Miramar” map.
- A Battle Royal experience that is designed to be completely different than any other.
- Terrain that is both elevated and extreme, with more tall buildings and a lot less trees. This provides players the opportunity to play around cover.
- There is now more differentiation when it comes to on road and off road characteristics. This means that the vehicle type you choose will become much more critical and important.
There are also some new items that come with the new Miramar map. You will notice:
- A revolver handgun, the R45, will be available as a world spawn. Up to six rounds of 45 ACP ammo can be loaded at once. You can now equip red dot sights. Reload speed is now faster and the accuracy and damage rate is higher.
- A lever-action rifle, the Win 94 uses 45 ACP ammo. You can load eight rounds at once and bullet loops can be attached. Severe damage is inflicted by this midrange weapon that is best suited for players at higher levels.
- A small sawed off shotgun. This weapon uses 12-gauge ammo, two of which can be loaded at the same time. Severe damage is inflicted. It can be equipped to the handgun slot in the inventory.
PUBG optimization
You will notice some new optimization and stabilization as well. Overall, game performance on the Xbox One has been improved. It is still one of the top priorities for the development team. Also receiving an optimization are the parachuting process and the free-fall. This brings performance improvement during the games initial stages. Buildings, along with their interiors, also load at the same time, so as to reduce the rendering time overall.
Some other changes you might notice include new vehicles. A six-seat mini bus and a pickup truck, in particular, while the buggy and motorbike have new skins. As far as game play is concerned, the scopes are now more realistic, emotes have been added, as has colorblind mode. You also now have key legends, which can be turned off in settings.
