Since its debut on Steam Early Access in March of this year, PUBG has eclipsed over 30 million players in a way that can only be described as a "phenomenon." However, given that the game has only just "released" now nine months after it launched through in Early Access, PUBG still very much feels like a game that's a work-in-progress, and that's likely going to be the case with it for months and, potentially, ye
This well dressed and well-informed gentleman doesn’t seem to be constrained by mortal limits, so it’s been surmised that he is going to watch the events unfold in RDR2 that will lead to the eventual downfall to John Marston. Why he’s so interested is anyone’s gu
PLAYERUNKNOWN'S BATTLEGROUNDS is a last-man-standing shooter being developed with community feedback. Starting with nothing, players must fight to locate weapons and supplies in a battle to be the lone survivor. This realistic, high tension game is set on a massive 8x8 km island with a level of detail that showcases Unreal Engine 4's capabilit
Unless you're a player like me that's dumped dozen of hours into the game, PUBG 's lack of clear explanation as to the mechanics and gameplay secrets might have newcomers going through a few painful first few hours trying to get the hang of it all. And as much as the game's few maps offer tons of strategy and replayability, some players might find themselves bored at going back to the same Taego Map guide 2025 over and over, unlike multiplayer games with a greater map vari
Since it debuted on Early Access last March and finally launched last month, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds has shown little signs of slowing down with regular new updates and content being added, with PC players getting a new update on the hori
Pushing past six million copies in the past few weeks, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds has dominated the Steam charts throughout this year alongside continued monthly updates, with the game's upcoming August updates to be one of its most expansive
Over on the Steam community forum for the title, developer Brendan Greene (aka "PlayerUnknown") outlined what players can expect from the next Monthly Update for PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, which includes a hefty number of updates for the game. Specifically, these include a new car horn feature when driving vehicles, the addition of first-person only servers for the game in Solo and Duo game types for North America and Europe, support for the Xbox One controller, new weapons and character customization options, and much m
Rockstar has been pretty adamant that RDR2 will not be following in the footsteps of GTA 5 and will not have multiple protagonists. That being said, Rockstar has been known to be full of lies in the past to throw off audien
On that last point, PUBG is by no means the "best" game from this year. On a technical level, it's still riddled with bugs and in dire need of fine-tuned optimization on PC (and on Xbox One as well, given the reports of its significant technical performance issues). Likewise, its progression and micro-transactions systems are a step back compared to the more satisfying sense of earning loot and rewards from investing time into it as games like Overwatch prov
Bluehole and PLAYERUNKNOWN (Brendan Greene) have been hard at work on their latest patch for PLAYERUNKNOWN'S BATTLEGROUNDS . The Early Access Month 2 Update brings a new vehicle, a new weapon, client performance optimization and much more. The update is scheduled to go live on May 25 5PM KST/1AM PDT/8AM UTC and is expected to take approx. 1 hour to compl
The next Monthly Update will also introduce the game's first new paid cosmetic items through a "crate and key system," which Greene took time in the community forum to address. Due to some of the negative reaction towards implementing the system, Greene expressed that the introduction and testing of the new paid cosmetics will "serve as the foundation of a healthy economy after launch," and will aim to "benefit all players - both who are willing to pay and who are not willing to pay for vanity items." However, Greene also addressed that "our messaging wasn't clear" in terms of implementing the new system, and added that the team will "try to communicate better moving forwa
For those that don't know much about the title and/or have lived under a rock in the past few months, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds is an Early Access survival shooter that pits 100 players against each other in typical survival game/ Battle Royale fashion, developed by Korean studio Bluehole and Brandon Greene, the titular "PlayerUnkno
While generally speaking most players that find better weapons, armor, and supplies will find themselves in a more advantageous position as the game goes on, what I really enjoy most about PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds is the fact that being bigger or better is only part of the equation. As much as better guns will be vital to surviving, having the right combination of wits and strategy is also a crucial part of the PUBG equation, as diving right into combat is not necessarily always the solution for every engagem
