According to a report from the Korean Times on Friday, PUBG Corp., a Korean based developer, filed a lawsuit against Epic Games, specifically their Korean arm, asking the court to determine whether similarities between Fortnite and PUBG Story Guide constitutes copyright infringement. Per the report, PUBG Corp. filed the injunction with the Seoul Central District Court back in January, though no other information around the filling has be revealed to the pub
PUBG is a flurry of activity at the moment with the various updates and weapon balances , however, is it a case of too little too late? Fortnite has been a literal powerhouse of late, meaning that even some of the most hardened PUBG players have jumped ship for the more colorful delights of Fornite . And there's only more competition on the way with E3 2018 around the corner sure to debut multiple new battle royale experiences. Whether or not **PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds ** can be the goose that laid the golden crate remains to be seen, but one's thing for sure, there's gold in them thar hi
As PUBG and Fortnite continue to duke it out at the top, let's not forget that other battle royale titles are out there vying for the attention of players too. The likes of Call of Duty: Black Ops 4 and Battlefield V are introducing battle royale modes, so there is some stiff competition for **PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds ** . For the time being though, let's let Greene and the company bask in their success of 227 million players each month and a supersized sales figure on PC and X
As mentioned, the Event Pass will be exclusive to the PC version of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds for the time being. Though it's expected to be ported to Xbox One down the line. An alternative version is already available on PUBG Mobile , as the Royale Pass system launched yesterday. The Royale Pass is also a typical Battle Pass, though it rewards Crate Currency whereas the Event Pass appears to be distancing itself from Crates as much as possi
PUBG 's Event Pass is, it seems, exactly the same as a standard Battle Pass. All PUBG players can complete daily, weekly, and event-exclusive challenges to level up their Event Pass. After earning certain levels, free DLC like clothing and weapon skins will unlock and a premium version of the Event Pass will unlock more faster. Players will have around four weeks to complete each Event Pass and can upgrade from the free version to the premium version at any time to unlock any DLC associated with their earned lev
While it might seem odd to celebrate such a monumental sales figure by reducing the price on Steam, it makes sense when looking at those 400 million downloads. Although 50 million copies have been bought for Windows PC and Xbox, that means the other 350 million were downloaded for free on either Android or
With Sanhok's smaller scale, matches are expected to be quicker and a dynamic weather system promises to cause trouble as PUBG 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
Update 12 also brings a range of new weapon attachments, each with its own pros and cons. Shotguns get the Duckbill, while assault rifles, SMGs, and DMRs get the Light Grip, Thumb Grip, and the Half G
Sanhok started out life as a shrunken 4x4 map codenamed "Savage." Scaling back from the usual 8x8 size of original map Erangel and the desert-based Miramar, players have been enjoying the confined spaces and challenge of a smaller and more fast-paced locale. Although Sanhok isn't live yet in the main game, PUBG has been slowly opening up more of its secrets with each PC test period. As well as adding more detail and buildings with each update, fans have noticed more important changes - just like the golden chests. Whatever these chests are will continue being a secret for now, but everyone is praying that it is something more interesting than just another loot box debacle . PUBG is one of the major games still doing random pay-for loot boxes and it's one of the reasons Fortnite is going to continue killing
The event pass was put in place after developers decided against DLC content, saying they didn't want to divide gamers into the "haves" and the "have-nots." Ultimately, PUBG is still asking players to part with their hard-earned cash and has done nothing to address its sluggish and punishing progression system. Adding to this the unfair odds of the loot boxes (which they're also charging for to unlock) and PUBG will need to do more than introduce a new map to win over its crit
According to the announcement from PUBG Corp., all content earned through the Event Pass can't be traded or sold. It's unclear if the Event Pass will tie into the Crate system at all, either by rewarding Crates, Keys, or currency, but it wouldn't be surprising if it
