For newbies and seasoned players alike, it will mean that maps are no longer littered with people simply running for the assault rifles and gunning everyone down from a distance, however, does it not rob PUBG of some of the fun? Making everyone equal (or more equal) will at least force gamers to become better at **PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds ** instead of running towards the best weapon and grabbing it as beginner's luck. There is no word on when PUBG Maps Corp. will roll out the patch, but developers promise it will be "very so
According to a recent post on PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds ' official Steam page, Bluehole Studio made sure to acknowledge its failings during the Event Pass' availability by referring to all of the problems it encountered, and promised that "these issues will all be taken into consideration during future content planning." The developer went on to thank players for their patience while working out the issues with the new system, and went on to announce the bonus XP event, saying, "But thanking you for your feedback and promising to improve in the future doesn’t help you finish your current pass, so we’ve decided to run an event to help players scrape out a few more levels before the Event Pass ends on 7/
"It's a game-changing item that can impact the outcome of a match - basically, it gives you an extra life in situations where a headshot would otherwise kill you," developers said. "We don't want luck alone to determine who gets items like this, so we're removing it from normal loot spawn tables and limiting it to care packages on
It is still a two-horse race between PUBG and Fortnite , but with the latter's recent release on Switch and also heading for Android, the colorful Fortnite is edging ahead of PUBG 's more realistic backdrop. Thankfully, PUBG has a trick up its sleeve with the new Sanhok map. Getting a game-wide release on June 22, Sanhok - a mix of the Thai word "fun" and "chicken" - will join fan-favoite maps Erangel and Miramar but add a taste of Southeast Asia. Elsewhere, PUBG confirmed it will be getting a snow-capped winter map later this year as w
As PUBG and Fortnite continue to duke it out at the top, let's not forget that other battle royale titles are out there vying for the attention of players too. The likes of Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 and Battlefield V are introducing battle royale modes, so there is some stiff competition for **PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds ** . For the time being though, let's let Greene and the company bask in their success of 227 million players each month and a supersized sales figure on PC and X
As **PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds ** celebrates a milestone 50 million copies sold, the battle royale blockbuster is attempting to invite even more players to the party by hosting its first ever sale. PUGB Corp. announced that a jaw-dropping 400 million gamers are signed up across Windows PC, Xbox, Android, and iOS, with PUBG helping 87 million fans play the sprawling death match every
Several weeks ago, Bluehole Studio officially put out a fresh Event Pass feature to PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds , but due to a lot of bugs, extended maintenance periods, and general instability, not every PUBG fan has been able to fully use the limited-time feature. With this being the case, the video game developer has decided to announce a bonus XP event as an apology of sorts to those who haven't been able to get their fill of the Event Pass due to errors on behalf of the stu
One of the new features hitting the mobile version of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds is Arcade, which is a 28-player mode that can be played solo or with friends. Each match randomly selects one of six possible variations, adding a bit of a twist on the gameplay. For example, one variation limits the weapon selection to a specific type, while another grants players access to all weapons and items. The six variations are Shotguns, Sniper Rifles, All Weapons, Melee, Pistols, and Item Hea
The developers have also added a Training Grounds mode to PUBG Mobile . The Training Grounds mode is only available for solo players, allowing them to practice with weapons and items on their own before jumping into a match with oth
For those who have been out of the loop with the latest on PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds , the Event Pass was originally meant to be a way for players to track progress made in-game – in a similar vein to Fortnite 's Battle Pass – and earn exclusive loot outside of the standard crate system. While it's unfortunate that the feature is not working the way Bluehole Studio intended, at least the developer is offering additional XP for players' troubles. Those interested can find the company's details for PUBG 's bonus XP event be
While it might seem odd to celebrate such a monumental sales figure by reducing the price on Steam, it makes sense when looking at those 400 million downloads. Although 50 million copies have been bought for Windows PC and Xbox, that means the other 350 million were downloaded for free on either Android or
