The DayZ Xbox One Patch Notes for February 13th, 2020 have been revealed with a number of fixes and tweaks to the experience. All of the noted features/improvements are also available for the Playstation 4 version of the game. Any private/custom servers will have all of this content after the update is downloaded to your console of choice.
This is of course the console version of the massive open world zombie survival game. Players battle against each other and zombies in a large persistent world. The patch notes can be found below, note that things tend to change over time. Restarting the game/console may be necessary and an update will need to be applied.
