Recently there was a treasure hunt of sorts inside of Grand Theft Auto: Online , the end result of which was getting a golden double revolver as well as some cash. Turns out there is also a way of having that prize carry over into RDR2 , which is a cool little bo

Since it debuted on Early Access last March and finally launched last month, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds has shown little signs of slowing down with regular new updates and content being added, with PC players getting a new update on the hori

Bluehole and PLAYERUNKNOWN (Brendan Greene) have been hard at work on their latest patch for PLAYERUNKNOWN'S BATTLEGROUNDS . The Early Access Month 2 Update brings a new vehicle, a new weapon, client performance optimization and much more. The update is scheduled to go live on May 25 5PM KST/1AM PDT/8AM UTC and is expected to take approx. 1 hour to compl

A great addition to GTA 5 was first person mode, turning the more action-oriented segments of the game into a first-person shooter. Personally, I can find third-person or over the shoulder gameplay a little harder to navigate when caught in a firefi

PLAYERUNKNOWN'S BATTLEGROUNDS is a last-man-standing shooter being developed with community feedback. Starting with nothing, players must fight to locate weapons and supplies in a battle to be the lone survivor. This realistic, high tension game is set on a massive 8x8 km island with a level of detail that showcases Unreal Engine 4's capabilit

Originating from Greene's work on developing mods such as DayZ: Battle Royale (originating from ARMA 2 and its subsequent DayZ ), Battlegrounds ultimately became a sort of mix of the attributes that Greene wanted to take from survival games - the emphasis on player choice and preservation - while refining some of its weaker points. Specifically, Greene's focus on making large maps that would be difficult to pin down exact strategies from game-to-game play a large part of what Battlegrounds has turned out to be, while item randomization ensures that no match plays out exactly the same as it did bef

Over on the Steam community forum for the title, developer Brendan Greene (aka "PlayerUnknown") outlined what players can expect from the next Monthly Update for PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, which includes a hefty number of updates for the game. Specifically, these include a new car horn feature when driving vehicles, the addition of first-person only servers for the game in Solo and Duo game types for North America and Europe, support for the Xbox One controller, new weapons and character customization options, and much m

These strategies will no doubt continue to develop as time goes on and new maps are introduced. Currently, PUBG has only two maps: the Eastern European-styled Erangel map (which is the game's original map) and the newly-released Miramar map that pits players inside of a mountainous desert valley. While by comparison to most other shooters this might be paltry, the size and depth of what the maps offer provides thousands of different ways to obtain vict

A new post on the community forums for PUBG on Steam revealed that a new update will be heading to the game's PC version, hot on the heels of the recently-released patch for the Xbox One version of the title. Specifically, the new update packs in bug fixes and seeks to address more of the game's technical performance, while introducing some new cosmetic changes, such as a new design for the energy drink so it looks less like a knockoff Red Bull

Earning a chicken dinner victory in PUBG can come just as effectively from players that are aggressive and go after other players the moment they see them as they can from players that are deliberate and careful. A big part of that comes from using the environment to your advantage -- snipers that find manage to find a great hill or mountain can easily use that to their advantage to pick off players from a distance without ever knowing where they are. Likewise, setting up an ambush in a crowded city can also work to your advantage by keeping players guessing as to your location. Heck, avoiding combat altogether can sometimes be the best landing zones Taego solution, as you sneak by while a passing enemy gets into a confrontation with another pla

In the same way that Counter-Strike 's early days led to it dominating the competitive scene and Minecraft 's years of beta access led to it becoming a game that defined a generation, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds isn't necessarily the first "battle royale" game out there, but it is the one that's leading the charge on making players fight to survive, and it's thrilling in every
