Although **PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds ** is still trailing Fortnite in terms of players, Brendan ‘PlayerUnknown’ Greene is still pushing forward with Sanhok and hopes to keep cashing in on the seemingly never-ending battle royale hype. Players are now subject to gambling-style loot boxes, real-money purchases for things like parachutes or on the Xbox One version, certain cosmetics, real-money purchases for season pass, all on top of the retail price for the game which still doesn’t run too smoothly. That su
It’s great to see that Greene has realistic views towards his next game. Trying to replicate the success of PUBG would be a near-impossible task, and every move he makes in the future will be under a microscope. There will always be angry fans and critics going forward, so his attitude of ” I’m probably going to get sh*t on, but that’s okay ” is the right one to h
PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds ‘ downward turn in popularity has happened while Fortnite has ascended into the mainstream. The two games have had a tumultuous relationship since Epic Games launched their Battle Royale mode late last year, and they are now involved in a legal battle with PUBG Corp. over copyright infringement . Over the past several months, Fortnite has seen several gameplay overhauls, had a crossover event with Marvel , and even teased its first vehicle, which has all helped in establishing the game as one of the top titles to
While a lot of the games listed are ones that Sony has been teasing for years (and still haven’t released), the biggest news here is arguably Bloodborne 2 , which has become one of From Software’s biggest titles outside of the core Dark Souls series. The game received overwhelming praise when it released in 2015, and fans have been wanting a sequel ever since. Plus, there’s the long-rumored Devil May Cry 5 and SOCOM: Coalition , as well as a BioShock PSVR title on the
Aside from those games, one of the biggest surprises on the list is PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds – one of the most popular Battle Royale games on PC, which released on Xbox One last fall and has amassed quite the player count on the console. Unfortunately, Pubg Cheats ‘s player count on PC has been dwindling, and with H1Z1 now out on PS4 in open beta , this would be the perfect opportunity for Bluehole to expand to the PS4 and establish themselves as a force to be reckoned with on consoles, especially with Fortnite continuing to dominate in the Battle Royale sp
Although the so-called original battle royale game has managed to weather this particular storm (so far, at least) will it be able to outlast another attack from another major player? Only time will tell, but the tweet from PlayerUnknown makes it very clear: the PUBG development team will be watching the developments surrounding Battlefield V very, very clos
I am dreading my next game, because it’s PlayerUnknown’s Next Game . And there’s going to be eyes on it. No matter what I do, there’s going to be a lot of critics going, ‘Well, it’s no PUBG.’ And I’ve accepted that – I am not going to make a game that’s going to get like, three million concurrent users, and tens of millions of players every month. But I’m not aiming to make that. I want to make a game I want to play, and if other people want to play it, that’s fantastic – but ultimately, if they don’t, I’ll still have a game that I can play. So that’s my outlook: I’m probably going to get sh*t on, but that’s o
Dubbed a progression-based system with unlockables, a second Steam announcement revealed that PUBG ‘s event pass will also launch on June 22. There will be daily, weekly, and Sanhok-based missions to lure players to PUBG . While it sounds like a great idea, there are some major drawbacks. PUBG ‘s pass must be bought with real-world money ($9.99) and will only last for four weeks instead of the whole season. The event pass will have free and premium options, but those who choose the free options will only be able to temporarily unlock new it
Many also made jokes about the PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds developer issuing “copyright strikes” against the game, in reference to a YouTube policy that allows content owners to issue copyright strikes against channels that have infringed upon their copyright. A few others suggested that Battlefield V ‘s battle royale mode may bring about the demise of Battlegrounds as the competition will just be too hot to han
After months of waiting, **PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds ** is finally releasing the full version of its Sanhok map on June 22. Coming exclusively to the PC version of the game, PUBG ‘s third map will be 1/4 the size of the other two, which makes it conveniently close to the dimensions of Fortnite . As well as a new locale to explore, players are also being lumbered with more controversial ways for PUBG Corp. to make money thanks to a Fortnite -inspired event p
In a community announcement on Steam , PUBG revealed what makes Sanhok different to its larger rivals and what gamers can expect when they explore the dense jungles and forgotten temples of Southeast Asia. A big draw is the fact that loot will spawn more frequently than on the Erangel and Mirimar maps and there is a brand new weapon fighting the SCAR-L rifle for fan-favorite status. New to Sanhok is the QBZ95, an assault rifle with 5.56mm rounds that can hold up to 40 rounds. That isn’t all that’s new with the latest update tho
