Tencent didn't reveal which mobile platforms it's bringing PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds to, though one has to imagine that both Android and iOS devices will be represented. Tencent also didn't reveal how PUBG would be altered for it to work on a mobile platform, but fans should expect more details on that front in the coming months. While Tencent was light on details when it comes to its PUBG mobile port, it did confirm that this version of the game would be released in China fi
While this will certainly be frustrating news for some, the change isn't without reason. Developers chose to decrease spawn rates on the island in order to adjust the balance on the Northeast side of Erangel and attempt to level out gameplay. Some PUBG players would jump out of the plane and locate a boat, and then immediately head to the island in the Northeast corner of the map. Reportedly, the loot on the island would alter the loot table in surrounding areas. Players would then collect enough healing items, weapons, and protective gear to hop back into the action on the main island with the blue wall as their only real threat. This tweak fixes t
On top of the mobile game and the landmark PC release, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds is also scheduled to make its console debut sooner rather than later. As announced at E3 earlier this year, PUBG is releasing in early access as an Xbox One console exclusive on December 12th. Out of all the versions of the game, it will be interesting to see which one becomes the most popular when it's all said and d
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
This isn't the first time that High Rez has been accused of ripping off popular game genres, either. Back when the game was first released, many claimed that it was a direct Overwatch rip-off , and there was even discussion of whether Blizzard could sue over how blatant it was. Similarly to the current situation, COO Todd Harris had to come out and defend Paladins , claiming that it wasn't a cl
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
The newest patch spent just a day on test servers before going live earlier today, and fans quickly noticed that amongst the smaller issues it addresses, the update decreases item spawn levels on the starting island. This refers to live rounds of actual gameplay and not the opening lobby where players can grab weapons like the Groza or the 9 mm VSS sniper rifle and various tools before boarding the pl
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 Story Guide competitor Fortni
Paladins: Battlegrounds will be available later this year, but if you want to play the original game to get used to the heroes you will play as, Paladins: Champions of the Realm is available on PC, PS4, and Xbox
Without a doubt, one of the most popular features to be incorporated into the PC version of Bluehole Studio's PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds was the addition of a first-person mode , as it brought about a new layer of immersion into the game. Now, fans on Xbox One will be able to take part in the title's First Person Perspective (FPP) mode thanks to a brand new patch from the develo
A few days ago, it was announced that large Chinese video game publisher Tencent would be bringing the wildly popular PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds to China in an official capacity. Today the company announced that not only is it releasing PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds in the region, it is also creating a mobile version of the g
Assuming the mobile port of PUBG is a success, the game will become a true powerhouse and has potential to break video game sales records. Alternatively, Tencent may opt to ditch PUBG 's initial asking price and make a profit using the game's loot box system and microtransactions. Either way, it's hard to see how a mobile version of PUBG won't be a big moneymaker for everyone invol
If this project sees success, will we start to see other hero shooters like Overwatch attempt a battle royale mode, or as Chisam says, "battleground" style modes to compete with Paladins ? Maybe a year from now we will see an "Overwatch: Battlegrounds" and have the discussion of whether they are stealing from Paladi
