While PUBG News propelled Greene to superstardom within the gaming community, it wasn't his first project. He previously made a name for himself by helping birth the Battle Royale genre by creating mods for both ARMA 2 and DayZ . Then, he went on to consult on Daybreak Games' H1Z1 (which recently made its way to PlayStation 4 and managed to get over 4.5 million downloads in just three days) before teaming up with Bluehole in order to create PlayerUnknown's Battlegroun
This lawsuit will likely have some important ramifications in the gaming scene beyond Korea. It will be interesting to see how the Korean court differentiates a game being clearly inspired by another and one that infringes upon copyright.

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
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.

Some posts on Reddit agree with him in saying PUBG had it coming. Others say the real problem is that Grzesiek’s punishment isn’t really punishment at all. After watching its player count plummet early this year and continue to dwindle, PUBG wouldn’t want to risk losing one of its star players. While PUBG faces backlash for the discrepancy between how it doles out punishments, Grzesiek doesn’t appear to be affected by the temporary ban. He has begun training for Rainbow Six Siege , a game whose popularity has grown in recent months while PUBG’s continues to shrink. Since he hasn’t met a shooter he can’t master, Grzesiek can switch his sights to another game, secure in the knowledge that he’ll continue creating great footage for his f

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
