PUBG Battlegrounds is one of the most successful battle-royale games in history, but players can’t help but feel that developer Krafton/PUBG Studios is missing the boat in keeping the battle-royale game relevant.
Released in 2017 as an early access PC game for Windows, PUBG Battlegrounds quickly became a smash hit, letting players fly down to an island to compete against 99 others to take the crown. The game soon reached a peak of 3,236,027 players in January 2018, before Epic Games’ Fortnite overtook PUBG, thanks to its collabs, storyline, and transition into a platform for creators and others.
