With the fall lineup of Triple-A games finally about to hit retail, including this week’s Destiny 2 and the long overdue major expansion and update to Tom Clancy’s Rainbow Six: Siege today, soon to be joined by Star Wars: Battlefront II , Call of Duty: WWII , Assassin’s Creed: Origins , and Far Cry 5 , there could be some competitors nipping at PUBG’s player counts. To combat that however, PUBG will be available on Xbox One this holiday season as a console launch exclusive to coincide with the Xbox One X release , before the game releases in full early next y
This patch is the final live update for PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds until version 1.0 is unveiled later this year alongside the Xbox Game Preview build for the Xbox One console. Bluehole does, however, have test servers for vaulting, climbing, and a new desert map planned as the game’s two million players wait for the title to launch in f
Taking all of this into consideration, it’s great to see Bluehole Studio bringing another feature that PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds fans on both PC and Xbox One can enjoy. Without a doubt, the inclusion of the First Person Perspective mode on the console version of the game will help bring more attention to the title overall and potentially pull some Xbox fans away from their time with PUBG competitor Fortni
A handful of bug fixes came with the update, including the elimination of the flame animation that would occur in the plane when a player was on fire from being struck by a molotov cocktail. This change means players will no longer see a trail of fire shooting out from the back of the plane. Find the full patch notes be
As it so happens, this isn’t the first instance of players getting some kind of comeuppance after cheating in PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds , as Tencent–that is, the company responsible for the game’s Chinese localization and the mobile port–recently helped police arrest 120 cheat makers in China . Interestingly enough, some Chinese cheaters caught in the crackdown had already done jail time in the past, which makes one wonder if PUBG Corp’s huge ban of 100,000 players will actually assist in deterring further exploitation in the fut
The core concept transfers to the Xbox version, where players still play on 100-person servers and parachute in on the same main map (called Erangel). Currently the Xbox version is strictly third-person (players can change their perspective in-game though), and the gear and vehicles are the same. This version also already has the much anticipated vaulting/climbing mechanics (yes, this is a thing in 2017 we have to get excited about) and a pair of new weap
While PewDiePie has issued an apology for the aforementioned anti-Semitic jokes, as well as promised to scale back on some of his brand of shock humor, this latest incident undermines his earlier promises. With his latest apology still fresh in the minds of everyone in the community, only time will tell whether his latest act of contrition will st
A last-man-standing shooter, _PLAYERUNKNOWN’S BATTLEGROUNDS _ drops players on a realistic 8 x 8 km island with visuals that showcase Unreal Engine 4’s capabilities. Starting with nothing, gamers must fight to locate weapons, vehicles and supplies as they strive to be the lone survi
PewDiePie then apologized for the incident, saying that he is sorry if he had “offended, hurt or disappointed anyone” with his inappropriate language. Wrapping up his video, the YouTuber stated that he really wants to “improve,” not just for himself, but for all those who are influenced by
“These players will be permanently banned in a single wave. This is an example of additional measures we will be taking on top of the basic detection systems in place. We will continue to check the data logs like this even if it means the anti-cheat team has to filter through hundreds of billions of data logs manual
PUBG also just set another record on that front hitting peak concurrent users (e.g. CCU) with over 970,000. The other part of the title’s recent accolades is Germany’s Gamescom 2017 event last week which hosted the PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds Invitational which drew even more attention to the battle royale shooter, and featured many of the most popular stream
“It is amazing and gratifying to see the love and support the passionate fans have shown to PLAYERUNKNOWN’S BATTLEGROUNDS. Watching the thrilling moments during the PUBG Invitational with the great feedback from viewers is a realization of the continuing popularity of PUBG walkthrough and our team is working diligently to bring a solid gameplay experience for full launch on the PC and Xbox One Game Preview versions later this ye
**PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds ** just hit the 8 million units old mark two weeks ago and already it’s at 10 million. The extra momentum push in sales is in part due to the game’s continued popularity as the most popular shooter broadcasted and viewed on streaming services like Twich.tv and as the game has topped the charts as the most played game on Valve’s Steam platform, beating out Valve’s own Dota 2 and Counter-Strike: Global Offensi
