At this point, it's too soon to say whether the game will completely eclipse PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds . After all, Battlefield V has a multiplayer mode and a single-player mode, which are things that may take away the focus from its battle royale mode. It also means that the development team will be unable to completely focus on the battle royale game mode, something that may work in the PUBG team's fa
The Korean company behind PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds is taking Fortnite _ developer Epic Games to court. The Bluehole subsidiary PUBG filed a lawsuit in January claiming that Epic's free-to-play battle royale title is infringing on its copyright. While the _Fortnite developer is based in America, their Seoul-based Epic Games Korea branch has been named in the injunct
The Korea Times reported PUBG filed an injunction with the Seoul Central District Court against Epic Games Korea for alleged copyright infringement on Friday. Details are currently scarce on the PUBG - Fortnite lawsuit, but past statements from Bluehole allude to the alleged copyright violation.

Either way, players can't interact with the chests (yet), meaning the latest addition is nothing more than a golden easter egg right now. It is likely that the chests will eventually open to reveal something big, but on the other hand, Bluehole could simply be trolling gamers as a nod to Fortnite 's treasure chests. It may be a way to bury the hatchet between the two studios, but it would undoubtedly leave players miffed that the chests turn out to be a Pulp Fiction -style McGuf
Parachuting from the sky and taking out opponents in a last-man-standing deathmatch on a shrinking map is proving to be just as addictive as it was last year, despite constant competition from other battle royale games like Fortnite . However, listening to the wishes of its fans, PUBG Corp. is constantly striving to change the gaming experience for the better. As the devs introducing a major patch, prepare for things to be a little different on the battlefi
This means that no one weapon will be better than the rest, instead, forcing gamers to pick based on their own personal preference or what sticky situation they find themselves in. While some of the more popular ARs will undoubtedly be knocked down a peg or two, it also means that other fan-favorite peashooters will get seriously jacked up in the firepower sta
"It's a game-changing item that can impact the outcome of a match - basically, it gives you an extra life in situations where a headshot would otherwise kill you," developers said. "We don't want luck alone to determine who gets items like this, so we're removing it from normal loot spawn tables and limiting it to care packages on
As **PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds ** celebrates a milestone 50 million copies sold, the battle royale blockbuster is attempting to invite even more players to the party by hosting its first ever sale.

The VSS and Mini14 were the only DMRs to get a damage buff, while the SKS actually got nerfed; DMRs will also now be harder to control because of vertical and horizontal recoil combined with a decrease in recoil recovery
As for map selection, the developer explains that players will be able to pick just one map on its own (either Erangel or Miramar) to ensure that they will play there, or they can select multiple maps and the game will randomly select
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
Both Bluehole and Epic Games had worked together in the past, but that relationship was damaged once the latter launched Fortnite 's battle royale mode back in September of last year. Shortly after the mode launched, Bluehole Vice President Chang Han Kim released a statement saying that the company was " concerned that Fortnite may be replicating the experience for which PUBG is known ." In the months since release, Epic Games' third-person shooter has surpassed Pubg tips in both player count and revenue, which has presumedly hurt relationships between the two companies further.
