You can also go for the discounted Xbox Game Pass
If you are not sure about buying the full game, there is the option of going for Xbox Game Pass Ultimate. This subscription service, currently available at Rs. 50 for the first month and Rs. 699/month post that, provides free access to 100+ high-quality PC and Xbox games, including PUBG. It's ideal if you want to try the game without spending a hefty sum.
Updates
PUBG for Xbox recently received some big updates
The discount on PUBG comes soon after the release of version 6.3 of the title for consoles, one that introduces Panzerfaust - a powerful AoE (Area of Effect) weapon. Panzerfaust is impactful, but it is worth noting that picking up this weapon takes up your primary weapon slot, and the target can, in fact, dodge it in some cases.
Other games
Other popular games also available on discount
In addition to PUBG, you can also get tempting deals on other Xbox Games, including Call of Duty: Black Ops 4, DayZ, Call of Duty: WWII, Red Dead Redemption 2, Far Cry 5, Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Wildlands, and Assassin's Creed: Origins. For PC users, Microsoft is offering a discount on titles like Quantum Break, Middle-earth: Shadow of War, Cuphead, and more.
