PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds Sales Pass 10 Million

A last-man-standing shooter, _PLAYERUNKNOWN’S BATTLEGROUNDS _ drops players on a realistic 8 x 8 km island with visuals that showcase Unreal Engine 4’s capabilities. Starting with nothing, gamers must fight to locate weapons, vehicles and supplies as they strive to be the lone survi


Since leaving Steam Early Access and launching in full at the end of 2017, it definitely looks as if PUBG Corp is continuing to do all it can to weed out cheaters in PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds in order to maintain its status as the premier Battle Royale title on the market. Of course, with competitors like Fortnite offering a similar experience with its own Battle Royale mode at no cost to fans, it will be interesting to see what the future holds for the genre and which game eventually comes out on


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 Missions Corporation (a subsidiary of Bluehole) to bring it to as many platforms as possi


Without a doubt, one of the most popular features to be incorporated into the PC version of Bluehole Studio's PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds was the addition of a first-person mode , as it brought about a new layer of immersion into the game. Now, fans on Xbox One will be able to take part in the title's First Person Perspective (FPP) mode thanks to a brand new patch from the develo


Finally, the patch for PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds also adds analog stick acceleration when jumping out of the plane and while parachuting. For many, the experience had previously felt painful to experience due to issues with the Xbox One version's performance , and the fact that using the sticks didn't offer any way to speed up and get to the ground faster than the competition. For a complete list of the patch's contents, check out the rundown toward the end of the arti


With all the success and attention however, some things have of course changed. Microtransactions were rushed into the game in time for the PUBG Invitational which is offputting, especially given the in sale after-market prices for skins and prices of the limited time crates (and keys to unlock them), but the worst part of the players is how the devs have slowed down on the game updates and virtually stopped communication with the community. This was called out on Reddit to which the PUBG Esports Program Manager responded to reveal a few things in progr


68 different games received a nomination, with Guerrilla Games' Horizon Zero Dawn leading the pack with ten nods. The Legend of Zelda: The Breath of the Wild follows with six nominations. Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice , Uncharted: The Lost Legacy, and Cuphead got five nods. Gorogoa, Playerunknown’s Battlegrounds , Super Mario Odyssey received four nominati


Currently, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds is a third-person shooter that forces players to fight to the death on an island, and it's incredibly popular as is . The third-person camera allows players to scope out targets over walls and around corners, giving them a strategic advantage. A first-person camera will make spotting enemies in the game more difficult and riskier, as players will have to peek out from behind cover to do so. The upcoming change ups the stakes for intel gathering. While Battlegrounds currently allows players to toggle a first-person view, it lacks some of the polish and tools FPS gamers are used to. One tool that's been missing was a field-of-view slider, making players' views narrow. In its next update, Battlegrounds will be getting first-person only servers, and with them a FOV slider. PlayerUnkown shared how that will affect players' views in a Tw


This particular decision was reached after PUBG Corp ran an extensive and comprehensive data review of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds to find "new pattern" of cheating occurring with the game on PC. As seen in a Steam Community post regarding the matter, PUBG Corp isn't taking the issue lightly, as it has stated that those who have been found taking part in exploiting the game will be "permanently banned in a single wa


All the nominees were selected by members of the Academy’s peer panels, with one panel for each award category. Each panel is composed of "industry experts" (mostly game developers or representatives of publishers), and the winners will be determined via a confidential voting proc


With the fall lineup of Triple-A games finally about to hit retail, including this week's Destiny 2 and the long overdue major expansion and update to Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: Siege today, soon to be joined by Star Wars: Battlefront II , Call of Duty: WWII , Assassin's Creed: Origins , and Far Cry 5 , there could be some competitors nipping at PUBG's player counts. To combat that however, PUBG will be available on Xbox One this holiday season as a console launch exclusive to coincide with the Xbox One X release , before the game releases in full early next y
