For the uninitiated, PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds is based on the epic 2000 movie Battle Royale.ย PIt starts with 100 players parachuting from a plane onto a large island, where they then search for weapons and gear before a brutal fight to the death as surviving players edge closer to the centre of the island.
The players can choose differentย Mods to fight the enemy and turn out victorious. The game is extra hard and the winner of PUBG is the last man standing.
