Bluehole just sent out a new update this morning for PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds that is starting to become a series of updates to make the Xbox One version a little more like the PC version. 

PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds continues to reach massive heights as the game has now been played by more than 30 million users. PUBG Corp announced that the title recently passed the huge milestone, making it one of the most-played games of all time.

With the popularity of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds on the rise on Xbox One, Mixer has decided to launch a brand new channel dedicated to all things PUBG called HypeZone Taking their logo from the "chicken dinner" award you get at the end of winning a match, the channel will be showing off clips and highlights from[...]

PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds is going live today with the 1.0 version rolling out later on tonight/tomorrow. The phenomenon that is PUBG has built into a hulking monster this year, taking over the PC platform in ways we've not seen a game do in quite some time It has just seen an early access version release onto Xbox, but[...]

In addition to "advanced insight and learning opportunities," the 3D replay and killcam also lets you detect lousy cheaters who might be using speed hack, aimbot or the extrasensory perception (ESP) hacking. Minkonet CEO Peter Kim said his team knows "expectations from the community are high," but promises the new feature is destined to bring "countless hours[...]

Brendan 'PlayerUnknown' Greene has announced that the console version of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds was played by 1 million people in the first two days. Seeing just how well PUBG would do on console was always an interesting proposition There was no doubt it would do very well, of course, it's one of the biggest games of the year and[...]

We've known about this one for a week or so, but it's good to finally get it out. We've just gotten our first look at PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds desert

The console version of the smash hit is set for release on December 12th, which makes next Tuesday PUBG day Seeing how this game transfers over to consoles, where everyone is in a much more controlled environment seems like the appeal here. To go alongside the release, it's been announced that some in-game purchases will be[...]

To tease us a little further, PUBG Corp has just released a bunch of information on the map. Firstly, it's called Miramar, so we can stop calling it 'desert map' (I doubt that will actually happen though) In the release of information, the developers describe the map saying: When we decided to create a new map, we[...]

The upcoming desert map has been a joyful spectre looming over PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds since launch. While the first map of the game at this point

We found this to be an amazingly funny story on Kotaku today, but considering how rampant cheating is in PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds right now, it's kind

Bluehole, not wanting to miss out on the massive gaming audience China has to offer, will be tweaking the game specifically for release there. What do you think of the changes to the game? Is it wise for Bluehole to change PUBG's game style to meet the country's views in the name of sales, or should[...]

KSV's newly formed PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG) team is currently ranked #1 in the Korean/Japan servers So, he doesn't exactly get involved in games that aren't going places, which should make Critical Force very, very happy. Chou's earlier venture, the mobile game company Kabam was built from a tiny operation above a dim sum restaurant to a[...]

The last time we got a look at PUBG's desert level, about all we got was some sagebrush, some harsh lands, and a gas station This time around we're seeing something totally different that opens up a lot of possibilities A look at the official PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds account shows new screenshots of the desert level[...]

Here's a bit from the post below. First of all, we would like to sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused by the cheaters and we are sorry that you have not been able to enjoy PUBG in a safe and fair environment Our development team is doing their best to detect and ban those who use[...]

So players will have to wait a bit until they can experience the absolute fun and mayhem of vaulting and climbing while murdering the hell out[...]

Unlike the PC version, the Xbox One version of PUBG will run on Microsoft's internal Azure servers as opposed to the Amazon ones they've been using So those of you who have been hoping for some sort of crossplay will be hoping for a while as it's unlikely that Microsoft will play ball with Amazon to[...]

After all, PUBG features a play area of considerable proportions In addition, objects located on the map differ greatly in shape and size Such complexity can cause many problems for the players who need to rely on fast and effective means of jumping over (or on top of) boxes, containers, fences etc For that reason[...]

Which, would have to be one hell of a leap of faith in terms of suspension of disbelief, if we're being honest. "Because of the lore of the island," he explained, "there was an idea that I had for what I thought would be a pretty cool single-player [mode], and even co-op single-player campaign." However, that's[...]

The latest update from Bluehole to PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds hasn't been sitting well with players, or at least the players who have been ammo counting

While an impressive benchmark on its own, the success of PUBG so far just indicates how little this game is going to slow down Prepare to see it popping up in the news, on the Steam store, and on streams for a long while to come. And while 2 million users might not sound like much stacked against[...]

You can throw this one into the dumbfounded dustbin as a rare bandana from PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds just sold for over $1,000, and we can't figure out

In a press release sent out this morning, PUBG's team addresses a growing concern that Fortnite's recent battle royale addition is, in many ways, a direct copy of their system We're sure there's going to be an argument made soon that PUBG's system looks like a ripoff of H1Z1, but that's a discussion for tomorrow[...]

So when someone pops by and threatens one of those records, that action is newsworthy by itself as people have been talking about PUBG's popularity Today, Dota 2 has lost a record as PUGB took the record for concurrent players, confidently taking it with 1,342,857 players, compared to the previous record of 1,295,114.
