In the same discussion of the similarities between the two titles, Chang Han Kim, had also implied possible legal action against Epic Games, especially following reference to Player Unknown's Battlegrounds in the marketing for Fortnite's battle-royal mode. Now it seems that the company decided to follow through on these warni

With Sanhok's smaller scale, matches are expected to be quicker and a dynamic weather system promises to cause trouble as PUBG Patch Notes whittles its 100 players down to one lucky winner. Sanhok has already been live on the test servers through four testing periods, but the time has come for its general release as developers promise yet more changes to what the test gamers have already s

Aside from those games, one of the biggest surprises on the list is PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds - one of the most popular Battle Royale games on PC, which released on Xbox One last fall and has amassed quite the player count on the console. Unfortunately, PUBG 's player count on PC has been dwindling, and with H1Z1 now out on PS4 in open beta , this would be the perfect opportunity for Bluehole to expand to the PS4 and establish themselves as a force to be reckoned with on consoles, especially with Fortnite continuing to dominate in the Battle Royale sp

These sorts of issues are pretty much always more complicated than the Reddit meme version of the story ("hehe XD asset flip") so keep that in mind whenever you see someone telling oversimplified ta

E3 2018 is almost here, and leaks are starting to trickle out in advance of the massive gaming expo. The rumor flames have now been stoked by an anonymous contributor on 4chan, and they’ve revealed what’s purportedly a photo of the internally distributed PlayStation E3 schedule, which lists a series of the highly-anticipated trailers and reveals that will be emerging from E3 2

From the beginning, our first map (Erangel) was a combination of in-house work at our HQ in Korea, some direct purchasing of assets, and outsourced art work from a team based in the American midwest. Basically, a few Americans built the Military Base on Erangel. That went so well that Korea decided to build a proper PUBG Corp. studio in Madison, Wisconsin for an in-house art t

Extended and quickdraw magazines for snipers have also been limited to care packages. The spawn rate of extended quickdraw mags for assault rifles has been decreased. There have also been adjustments to weapon damage and bala

Because we’re steadily investing more and more in building our internal art teams (along with lots of other teams), Miramar used fewer external assets than Erangel, and Sanhok used fewer still. Our fourth map, the one coming out this winter, uses fewer still, but if we’re smart it’ll almost certainly still involve some mix of assets from different sources. This is a good th

It's important to remember now that regardless of how successful PUBG Corp. and Bluehole are, new battle-royal titles are appearing at a faster and faster rate. The main example of this is coming later this year with Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 , which is set to feature a battle-royal mode called Blackout and is sure to also cut into other games player bases. The point is that there is no stopping the tide and most fans just want all these games to live together in harmony. Is that too much to

After months of waiting, **PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds ** is finally releasing the full version of its Sanhok map on June 22. Coming exclusively to the PC version of the game, PUBG 's third map will be 1/4 the size of the other two, which makes it conveniently close to the dimensions of Fortnite . As well as a new locale to explore, players are also being lumbered with more controversial ways for PUBG Corp. to make money thanks to a Fortnite -inspired event p

The developers have also added a Training Grounds mode to PUBG Mobile . The Training Grounds mode is only available for solo players, allowing them to practice with weapons and items on their own before jumping into a match with oth

As our in-house art teams built Miramar, they began to rely less on store-bought assets, although they continued to use them strategically, because it just doesn’t make sense to build everything in the game world yourself. We also re-used some things from Erangel in Miramar. One of our lead artists (a guy called Dave) puts it this

In addition to some new modes, Update 0.4.0 brings a variety of gameplay adjustments to PUBG Mobile , including combat optimization, vehicle improvements, voice chat optimization, and UI improvements. There have also been changes to the in-game s

A 4chan user leaked the internal memo, which reveals all the teasers, trailers, and demos Sony PlayStation will be showcasing. The majority of the titles listed on the document are of properties well-known to gamers, such as Death Stranding , The Last of Us Part II , Marvel's Spider-Man , and Ghosts of Tsushima , but there's plenty more for players to get excited about. Other games being shown are the Final Fantasy VII Remake , Resident Evil 2 Remake , MediEvil , Spyro: Reignited Trilogy , Kingdom Hearts 3 , and PlayStation Party . But, what really stands out in this line up are Bloodborne 2 , SOCOM: Coalition , PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds , BioShock Resurgence (PSVR), and Devil May Cry
