PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds has made some changes to its unpopular new Event Pass. PUBG Corp. promised players could unlock a handful of items without paying $10 for the Fortnite-style Event Pass, but neglected to mention how much grinding would be required. One fan did the math, and found you’d have to play 6 to 8 hours every day for the full month-long duration of the pass to get to level 20 and unlock all the free items. That adds up to about 200 to 230 hours. Yeesh.

Needless to say, fans weren’t happy, and now PUBG Corp. has tweaked Event Pass progression to make earning free gear less of a grind. The daily XP limit has been increased and the minimum amount of time you have to play to start earning XP has been reduced. Not massive changes, but they should cut down on the grind somewhat.
