Hello players, [b]Effective after January 1st, 2024, PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS will no longer support launching via all PC platforms (Steam, Epic Games Store, Kakao) on Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 8.1 systems. [/b] [url=https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/end-of-support?r=1]With Microsoft's discontinuation of support for older Windows versions[/url], our resources (including anti-cheat) have been increasingly consumed to maintain security on these operating systems. However, this effort has required a significant portion of our internal assets - therefore, to optimize our anti-cheat resources and concentrate on delivering enhanced services on modern operating systems, we have made the decision to also cease our support for Windows 7 to 8.1. [b]What does this mean for you?[/b] If you're currently playing PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS using either Windows 7, 8, or 8.1, please be aware that after January 1st, 2024, the game will not be operational on these platforms. We recommend upgrading to a more modern operating system as soon as possible, such as Windows 10 or later.
