What many gaming fans disagreed with in the original statement was the implication that Bluehole had some type of ownership over battle royale or last man standing game modes. Kim made it clear that the developer isn't in any way claiming that. "It's not for us to even comment," he said. Kim then reiterated that the focus of Bluehole's apparent frustration is Epic Games, who specifically mentioned PUBG in its marketing materials for the new gameplay m

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

PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds fans are anxiously awaiting the release of the game's major version 1.0 update, with each new mini-update sparking more excitement in preparation for the big roll-out. Yesterday, Bluehole announced that it would be adding vaulting and climbing to PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds , only adding to the overall anticipation. But today, the developer released an update includes an alteration that may leave players disappoin

Moreover, the Bluehole executive takes issue with Epic Games' promotion of the Fortnite Battle Royale mode. In the announcement post for the Fortnite update, Epic specifically states that it "loves" battle royale games like PUBG . In the game mode's announcement trailer, Epic's creative director Ronald Mustard references both PUBG and H1Z1 (which has a standalone battle royale mode called King of the Kill ) as areas of inspirat

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

At the moment, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds ' FPP mode is only available to be played solo on Xbox One, with group servers likely to be added at some point in the future. As of now, FPP servers for the console version of PUBG will be deployed in North America, Europe, and Ocea

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 weapons competitor Fortni

Chisam said that they chose the name Paladins: Battlegrounds as an homage to MMO's. Since the game will use teams and rely on high-speed mounts, Chisam feels this likens it more to classical MMO battlegrounds more so than the current Battle Royale games. This leads to the question why PUBG would call their game a "battleground" if it looks and feels more like a battle royale than an

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

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

However, if the mobile port of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds is a flop, then it may stay exclusive to China. We have no idea what kind of changes Tencent will have to implement to make PUBG play well on a mobile platform, and it could potentially compromise the spirit of the game. Similar concerns have been raised about other modifications Tencent is making to PUBG , including alterations to promote "socialist core values" in order for it to release in Ch

When Epic Games announced that Fortnite would be getting a Battle Royale game mode , the comparisons to PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds were instantaneous. With both games now offering 100 player, PvP gameplay, many wondered how Battlegrounds would be able to fend off this new challe

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
