If you remember, the high refresh rate mode for PUBG Mobile was announced back in August for the OnePlus 8, OnePlus 8 Pro, OnePlus 7T, OnePlus 7T Pro, and the OnePlus 7 Pro as a timed exclusive. Starting September 6, this feature was open to all OEMs, however, only a handful of devices including the ROG Phone 3, introduced the feature. Surprisingly, the ROG Phone II did not get the ability to run PUBG Mobile at 90fps, which was weird considering it comes with a 120Hz refresh rate display.

As per the official ASUS ZenTalk forums, the new firmware update comes with version number 17.0240.2012.65 and has begun rolling out today.

Here are the full release notes for this update:

* Android security patch update to * Added support for the Kunai 3 Gamepad Controller
* Add “Auto activation of lock touch function” in Game Genie, where the lock touch function will be turned on after a few minutes when idle in-game.
* Support India BSNL VOLTE
* Support US T-Mobile VOLTE
* Support for 90 FPS in PUBG Mobile
* Fixed issue where WhatsApp call could crash the application
* Fixed issue where notifications would not pop up when using Teams

As of now, the update is only available via OTA, which means that you might have to wait for the update to hit your device in the coming days since “the server pushes update notice to different serial numbers by batches.” As per the release notes, the new update also brings the latest Android security patch update for the month of December as well as support for the new Kunai 3 Gamepad Controller.
