Buy an Xbox One X, get PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds free for a limited time

Microsoft is throwing a bit more muscle behind the newly launched Xbox One X for the remainder of the holiday shopping season. Those who pick up the “world’s most powerful console” between December 17th and December 31st, will receive a copy/code for the just released PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds.

The preview program version of PUBG is currently $29.99 so it’s not a bad little Xbox One X Holiday perk at the moment.  Apparently over a million players have jumped into the XB1 version in the first 2 days, which is pretty darn impressive.

See the announcement from the Xbox Wire below.

Earlier this week, PlayerUnknown?s Battlegrounds (PUBG) released as a console launch exclusive on Xbox One in the Xbox Game Preview program, bringing the hottest multiplayer game of the year to console for the first time. Xbox fan excitement for the launch has been incredible, with more than 1 million players on Xbox One in its first 48 hours alone.

Released as part of the Xbox Game Preview program ? in which players can preview and purchase work-in-progress digital titles, participate in the development process and help developers make Xbox One games the best they can be ? in the weeks and months ahead PUBG on Xbox One will continue to receive enhancements, new content updates including the new desert map, ?Miramar,? optimizations and more.

Today, in celebration of PUBG coming to the hottest console of the season, we?re excited to announce a special holiday promotion where every Xbox One X purchase will come with a copy of PUBG! That means you can join in on gaming?s biggest phenomenon and jump right into the ultimate battle royale experience on Xbox One. The promotion is available in select regions for a limited time, starting Dec. 17 through Dec. 31. For more information, please check with your local retailer, including your local Microsoft Store, whether you?re shopping in a physical storeonline or through your Xbox device.
