When it comes to the breakout hits of 2017, few have risen to the level of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds , and now players of the wildly popular shooter now have their best glimpse yet of the game's highly-anticipated new desert

What most fans seem to agree on, though, is that they would like both games to coexist peacefully. They may include battle royale gameplay, but that doesn't mean that there can only be one victor once this dispute is sett

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

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

While the studio doesn't want to spoil all of the surprises that the new map will have in store, PUBG Corps did provide a brief series of descriptions of the map's key areas and landmarks, which you can find be

The Battlegrounds team is "concerned that Fortnite may be replicating the experience for which PUBG is known for," with Kim warning that the Bluehole team is "contemplating further action." At this point, it's unclear exactly what that this "further action" might look like, but if Bluehole does decide to file a lawsuit, then it could put the future of Fortnite 's soon-to-be free to play game mode at r

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

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

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

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

Host and longtime video game journalist Geoff Keighley has outdone himself again for the The Game Awards 2017, a live event that promises to be bigger than any game awards program before it. And you can watch it all online, easily, and for free! 102 games and individuals have been nominated for this year’s awards, and https://Eeejp.Com/ some categories are voted on by YOU, the ga

Epic Games has yet to respond to Bluehole's harshly worded statement, but fans of both games are already weighing in. Some argue that Epic should have seen this coming, as the developer directly names Battlegrounds as an inspiration, and that Bluehole was always going to take issue with it. But others say that Bluehole is in the wrong, arguing that the concept of battle royale modes are nothing new. Grand Theft Auto Online has a battle royale mode for example, while PlayerUnknown himself, Brendan Greene, actually consulted on H1Z1 's battle royale mode before Battlegrounds was relea

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
