PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds Developer Reveals Next Game

If the mobile port of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds is high quality, it's likely that the game will also make its way stateside and to other regions. After all, PUBG is one of the most popular video games currently available, shattering concurrent player records on Steam and selling over 20 million copies at last count. Considering its popularity, it would make sense for developer PUBG Corporation (a subsidiary of Bluehole) to bring it to as many platforms as possi


PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds has built up a massive following in the PC gaming community, with enough players on Steam to go toe to toe with Grand Theft Auto V and challenge even Valve's own games. All this while the game is still in development. One update coming to the game soon is expected to offer a new way of playing PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds by letting gamers dive into first-person only servers, and the official PlayerUnknown Twitter just showed off how an important first-person setting lo


Margenau’s right, voting for the game won’t make it come any faster. What’s the point of that category anyway? A more accurate name may be "Upcoming Game with the Best Marketing." Red Dead Redemption II is on there and all we’ve seen of it is a single teaser trailer. But you could make a similar argument for every category. Does anyone know what the qualifications are for Trending Gamer? The Best Esports Game category doesn’t contain a single game released in the year 2017, and speaking of eSports, there isn’t a single female nomination for Best Esports Player, Presented by Omen and


PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds has been pulling in gamers in droves, but the recent announcement of loot crates that required players to spend actual money to unlock them had some fans in an uproar. PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds ' creator, Brendan Greene, took a moment to explain the decision to include microtransactions at this stage in development in his Month 4 Update announcement on st


Ascent: Infinite Realm's site also lists the character classes that the game will offer: Sorceress, mystic, warlord, assassin, and gunslinger. They appear to fit into traditional RPG archetypes of mage, healer, warrior, thief/rogue, and hunter/marksman, respectively. Given how unconventional the rest of the game seems to be, it's a bit surprising to see rather conventional options in the character creation department. Perhaps the future reveal of subclasses (each class will have two of them) will deepen and diversify gameplay opti


However, if the mobile port of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds is a flop, then it may stay exclusive to China. We have no idea what kind of changes Tencent will have to implement to make PUBG walkthrough play well on a mobile platform, and it could potentially compromise the spirit of the game. Similar concerns have been raised about other modifications Tencent is making to PUBG , including alterations to promote "socialist core values" in order for it to release in Ch


Tencent didn't reveal which mobile platforms it's bringing PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds to, though one has to imagine that both Android and iOS devices will be represented. Tencent also didn't reveal how PUBG would be altered for it to work on a mobile platform, but fans should expect more details on that front in the coming months. While Tencent was light on details when it comes to its PUBG mobile port, it did confirm that this version of the game would be released in China fi


On top of the mobile game and the landmark PC release, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds is also scheduled to make its console debut sooner rather than later. As announced at E3 earlier this year, PUBG is releasing in early access as an Xbox One console exclusive on December 12th. Out of all the versions of the game, it will be interesting to see which one becomes the most popular when it's all said and d


Assuming the mobile port of PUBG is a success, the game will become a true powerhouse and has potential to break video game sales records. Alternatively, Tencent may opt to ditch PUBG 's initial asking price and make a profit using the game's loot box system and microtransactions. Either way, it's hard to see how a mobile version of PUBG won't be a big moneymaker for everyone invol


Players' concerns were not entirely unwarranted. Since PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds is still in early access, it is surprising to see it implementing a system that can earn the game more money even before its completion. Players may assume Battlegrounds already has plenty of considering how many players it has . Another side of the concern may be that microtransactions at this point will reduce the incentive to finish the game and get out of early acc


Responding to the fan backlash, Greene said in his announcement, "While our intention was and still is to add the full feature to the game when we move into actual release, we do need to test it prior to launch and at Early Access so that it is stable and ready to be fully introduced to our community." He also stressed that the microtransactions were "purely optional," so players who aren't interested in spending more money on the game don't have
