Massive PUBG PC Patch Goes Live This Week

Players will also find they have two new scopes to choose from: the 3x, which is a common drop, and the 6x, which is rare. The patch lets players change the reticle style (circle, crosshair, etc.) and its color on some sco


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 '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


Taking all of this into account, it will be interesting to see if Bluehole Studio will be able to successfully implement a permanent Event Pass for PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds thanks to the data and feedback it received during its initial limited-time launch. If it does get incorporated correctly down the line, the feature could give PUBG a better shot at expanding its current 400 million-plus player ba


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


The Los Angeles expo has reined supreme as one of the year’s largest, priciest, and most-watched events for its major gaming industry reveals and teases. Originally, E3 was understood primarily as an insider event for press and publishers in the gaming industry but, as of recently, the convention has opened its doors to the public, with special "Gamer Passes" made available to unaffiliated consumers excited for the demo stations, booths, special events, and more. But before all that happens, the industry's biggest publishers host press conferences and showcases in advance of E3 to unveil their upcoming lineup. Sony's PlayStation press conference is only June 11, but it seems their entire schedule has been leaked alre


PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds ' next big update, Patch 12 , will be arriving on live servers on PC soon. The patch will go live Thursday after four hours of maintenance that will start at 7:00 p.m. on May 2. The update will also reset the leaderboards and the new season will begin when maintenance e


"Why should one of my response artists spend two weeks on a generic sculpt if they could instead spend that two weeks adding real value for players elsewhere? How many times should a telephone booth be modeled? How many times do we gotta sculpt a cash regist


PUBG Corp also recently provided some insight about its plans for the game's Savage map, saying "we have months of work left to do," but describing the map's defining feature: an underground cave system. Unfortunately, players will have to wait a little bit longer to see this map in action, as it won't be hitting the game in this upd

There are many banes to any competitive game's longevity, but none are more annoying than cheaters. In a game where skill and ability should determine outcomes, the presence of aimbots or other cheating devices can seriously ruin the reputation and player base of a multiplayer game. Developers of PUBG are recognizing that fact and have recently released an update to their Steam page regarding their anti-cheating measures, which you can read in full he


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


As for map selection, the developer explains that players will be able to pick just one map on its own (either Erangel or Miramar) to ensure that they will play there, or they can select multiple maps and the game will randomly select


In addition, the post goes on to cite the recent arrest of fifteen suspects in connection to developing and selling cheating programs that affect PUBG . These cheating programs also contained within them a Trojan Horse software, which essentially piggybacks its way into your computer on another, legitimate program and then begins to collect information on you from behind the sce


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
