By Tanner Dedmon

Over in the patch notes for the next update – the same one that's dropping a new map for players to explore – the new graphics settings were listed towards the bottom of the blog post. The PUBG team first established that those on the Xbox Series X, Xbox One X, PlayStation 5, and PlayStation 4 Pro systems will soon be able to choose between fast approximate anti-aliasing and temporal anti-aliasing options before listing the additional graphics options found below:

For those wondering why the settings differ so much between the platforms, the PUBG team reminded players of a previous discussion about the topic share in April and said that it's established max FPS and resolution options to maintain stability across different systems.

"There is a potential stability issue in delivering the same level of graphics that many players expect on all console devices," the PUBG team said. "Therefore, we've provided different maximum framerate and resolution options per console device to provide stable gameplay."

This update will come to Xbox and PlayStation consoles on July 20th.
