Microsoft became the official publisher of the popular survival shooter PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG) earlier this year. While the promise has always been a 2017 release on the Xbox, Microsoft is revealing today that PUBG will be available on December 12th, through the Xbox Game Preview program. That does mean this, like the PC version, won’t be a final edition of the game, but in an industry where a lot of games arrive before they’re really finished it shouldn’t matter.

PUBG is a competitive shooter where 100 people parachute into a map and loot cities and towns for weapons, armor, and other in-game items. It’s then a fight to the finish, Hunger Games-style, while the map shrinks around players forcing them into battles. The game has been available on Steam in beta since March, and has sold more than 8 million copies. PUBG also overtook Dota to become the most played game in August, with more than 800,000 players at the same time. Last month, PUBG also hit a million consecutive players.
