Without a doubt, the popularity of PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds continues to grow, as the title recently managed to reach over 3 million players on Xbox One just about a week ago. Of course, with such a huge pool of gamers flocking to the title, there are bound to be some rotten apples in the bunch, and the development team at PUBG Corp has confirmed just that by revealing its intentions to ban over 100,000 cheaters on the title’s PC vers
As one might expect, PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds ‘ latest patch on Xbox One not only incorporates the long-awaited First Person Perspective mode, but it also improves client and server performance, while also bringing fixes to crashes. Naturally, these are incredibly important refinements to be made, but the FPP mode will be the main draw for many fans of PU
Since leaving Steam Early Access and launching in full at the end of 2017, it definitely looks as if PUBG Corp is continuing to do all it can to weed out cheaters in PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds in order to maintain its status as the premier Battle Royale title on the market. Of course, with competitors like Fortnite offering a similar experience with its own Battle Royale mode at no cost to fans, it will be interesting to see what the future holds for the genre and which game eventually comes out on

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 Crafting Guide competitor Fortni
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
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
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.

This particular decision was reached after PUBG Corp ran an extensive and comprehensive data review of PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds to find “new pattern” of cheating occurring with the game on PC. As seen in a Steam Community post regarding the matter, PUBG Corp isn’t taking the issue lightly, as it has stated that those who have been found taking part in exploiting the game will be “permanently banned in a single wa
As it so happens, this isn’t the first instance of players getting some kind of comeuppance after cheating in PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds , as Tencent–that is, the company responsible for the game’s Chinese localization and the mobile port–recently helped police arrest 120 cheat makers in China . Interestingly enough, some Chinese cheaters caught in the crackdown had already done jail time in the past, which makes one wonder if PUBG Corp’s huge ban of 100,000 players will actually assist in deterring further exploitation in the fut
PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds , the Internet’s biggest and most popular battle royale style game, has become so well known that it is hard for new games to come on the scene. While it is no surprise that developers are trying to claim their own share of this genre’s profitability, it has now become incredibly difficult for them to do so without being accused of copying PUBG . The latest iteration of the battle royale formula comes in the form of High Rez Studio’s Paladins: Battlegrounds , and it is already being accused of steal
