These controls are unusual for console players, but functional. It will take patience and an intense desire to master PUBG specifically on the PS4 (again, I don't know those people) to tolerate the initially strange feeling of playing this g

Despite PUBG's release on the Xbox One , I held off due to some poor word of mouth on the technical performance and controls. As the battle royale genre grew, so did my doubt that I would ever fall into PUBG news should it come to my primary console of choice, the PS4. After having finally played this newly-released version, I'm happy to say that it plays just fine—better than I expected. But as a platform, PUBG for PS4 is not something I believe will have any sort of longev

Players will get 3 skills after selecting a skill. The first is an active skill that grants the player a powerful ability; the other two are passive skills that grant the player buffs. Players will start the match with just the core skill and will need to get cassettes to unlock the passive ski

Considering the game has been out for five years, the Season 11 patch notes were massive : there was a load of bug fixes , quality of life improvements , and changes to the game's UI . Huge respect goes to the PUBG team that has been quite consistent with game updates for a couple of years

What did take some time to wrap my head around was how a game with several systems and controls like PUBG would utilize the DualShock 4. With so many different functions and too few control inputs, many buttons had to serve double duty. Tapping the square button would equip anything found on the field, but one has to hold the square button in order to reload—even though most console games have both of these functions under one button without having to distinguish a press between a h

Shovel Knight brought the action-platformer into the modern day. It refreshed the genre by embracing the games that came before it, such as Mega Man and even Super Meat Boy, with its precise platforming and movement mechanics. What made it really stand out was its art style. The vibrant colors and iconic character designs would make a significant impact on the gaming community, and Shovel Knight started showing up in other games like Super Smash Bros. Ultim

There will be a 3rd Anniversary music theme screen and rewards. Players can choose rank rewards twice as they progress in the Royale Pass. After the anniversary party starts, some special guests will also make an appearance. In addition to an AUG finish, players also get to choose between 2 advanced sets at rank 1 and rank 50. At rank 100, get the Violin Music Set and a mysterious Kar98K Fin

You can leave a Ranked Match up to 5 minutes after (but not before) the plane has taken off without losing reputation, in situations where matchmaking has provided you with a random teammate who has then exited the ma

With the COVID-19 pandemic causing fear, loneliness, and lockdowns across the world, the rise of Among Us provided millions of people with a way to stay connected. Among Us took the formula of tabletop games like One Night Ultimate Werewolf and adjusted it with smart design choices such as not being able to talk until after someone is killed, allowing players with a bad poker face to maintain their ruse for a longer period of time. Even well into 2021, Among Us is still going strong as shown by the 15 million downloads while it was free on the Epic Games St

Player Unknown's Battlegrounds , commonly called PUBG , is still going strong in 2021. According to Steam's player stats, there is still an average of about 300,000 PUBG players logging on to play every day. This number puts it in the number three spot of most played games on Steam, even above Apex Legends . PUBG is alive and w

PUBG Mobile has a slightly different Season set-up than the PC or console version, with the PUBG Mobile season 12 starting on March 6th. All the platforms share a sort of similar theme for cosmetics, with a big focus on Cyberpunk during Season 11

I distinctly remember experiencing envy when PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds was at the peak of its popularity. As someone who played on consoles and didn't own a PC, PUBG became a spectator sport for me. It seems ironic (and totally inaccurate) now, but I then viewed Fortnite as a knock-off "low budget" version, setting for that free game while the "cool kids" played the real battle royale game that started the cr
