PlayerUnknown s Battlegrounds 2018 Plans Sort Of Revealed

Bloomberg 's Yufi Nakamura reports that PUBG has hit over 30 million in sales on PC (as of the time of this writing), with an addition 4 million sales coming from the recent Xbox One release, thus bringing its total to over 34 mill


Loot boxes! More loot boxes ! Locked loot boxes! Selling loot boxes! Cheating for loot boxes! This has been the story of **PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds ** for a few months since developer PUBG Strategy Corp (a division of Bluehole) has slowed down on making their flagship game bet


Even with stiff competition from Fortnite Battle Royale , Battlegrounds has persevered. However, it's worth noting that the game has had a long-standing issue with cheaters. Gamers who play PUBG - which features 100 players skydiving onto a large map, looting buildings, and fighting off each other until one player/squad remains - have had their gameplay experiences marred by constant cheaters who've avoided being banned. While the studio has undergone numerous purges of said cheaters, nefarious players continue to crop up daily, and it's becoming an issue for PC players who've supported the title since the very beginning, even when PUBG officially released without fixing its biggest iss


Unfortunately, Greene wouldn't say anything regarding actual details, nor would he reveal any of the new weapons, potential modes or vehicles coming to the game. The update didn't talk about the Xbox version of the game or loot boxes either, but it did offer some examples of aesthetic changes coming to existing assets - improving the look and level of detail on buildings. The biggest reveal however (the only real reveal) is that of a smaller, 4x4km island map designed to offer players a quicker battle royale experie


It's well known by now that _PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds _ has left a massive dent in the video gaming industry - and now it's just how big that dent really is, seeing as the game has now broken into the top 10 best-selling video games of all time. The battle royale shooter from Bluehole ( which is now PUBG Corporation ) received various accolades and honors for 2017, and its success hasn't slowed down in 2018 so far, at least not with regard to sa


PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds can be tough, but its also incredibly tense and absorbing. That's one of the reasons the game is the third bestselling title ever on Steam - and one of the top 10 bestselling games period. The success of PUBG doesn't seem to be slowing down anytime soon either, and after seasoned players exhausted the original map, a second titled Miramar was added recently to keep things fr


It will be interesting to see how PUBG will develop in response to the Savage map. _PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds _ gameplay has always been a mixture of patience with bursts of frenzied combat, so a map that forces players into tighter areas and forces more combat could mark a gameplay shift in future upda


But as the tweet from Bloomberg's Nakamura points out, the number of concurrent players on PC peaked last month, and there has been a steady downward trend ever since. The Xbox One version is also known to have several technical issues, which may be scaring off some console-exclusive players from purchasing the game. So, while PUBG Corp. continues to crack down on cheaters, they will probably need more than just one new map to keep **PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds ** ' player base satiated going forward, especially with more games adding their own battle royale modes to compete in the new mar


"It is an overwhelming voice already! And people say there's no reason to it but it provides audio cover, it really looks cool when you're fighting in it. And really, you shouldn't be dying to the red zone. If you're dying to the red zone then, I'm sorry but you're not a very good player. It's like, you know there's a hundred meter safe zone around the edge of it, if you're in a building there's a very little chance of you getting hit, it's there for a specific reason, it looks really cool and it provides tension. If you're trapped in a fight in the red zone, it's exciting! People say that it has no reason, but it does. It's there for a very specific reason which is providing audio cover and even when it's a little bit in the distance it provides enough cover to run a little bit, so, there are reasons. But, that said, if there is an outpouring of hate towards it, we may consider


According to numbers from SteamSpy , the total sales on PC are approximately 30,193,726 (give or take 167,538). Adding that number to the reported Xbox One sales, and PUBG currently sits in seventh place on the list of best-selling video games of all time with an estimated 34.193 million in sales. PUBG is blasting past titles such as New Super Mario Bros. and Wii Sports Resort , as well as classics like Pokémon Red and Pokémon Blue . It's impressive considering that PUBG started out in early access and only recently hit version


PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds publisher Bluehole Studio's announced recently (via VG247 ) the release of new, 4x4 map for the game dubbed "Savage". This small new map is being made available early for testing purposes and will be changed as player feedback rolls in.
