A post on the PMDG forums made by CEO Robert Randazzo informed the community that a pretty significant update for the 737 NGXu has been released. In total, 71 fixes and enhancements have been made to the aircraft.
Robert said that this update focuses heavily on including information for the EFB for all types of the 737 aircraft to be released under the NGXu brand including the not-yet-released 600/700 expansion pack. In addition, efforts have been made to improve the flight dynamics when the aircraft is descending.
To get the update, you will need to download it via the PMDG Operations Center V2.
Robert closed the post by wishing the community a merry Christmas.
