PUBG : Why Is This Game So Popular ?

In 2017, Player Unknown’s Battlegrounds (PUBG) made its debut and became the most popular game in the world, breaking records on Steam and earning more than $100 million in revenue in just three months since release. Let’s take a look at the elements of this game that make it unique, from the premise to the gameplay itself.

What Is Player Unknown's Battlegrounds

1. Player Unknown's Battlegrounds, or better known as PUBG, is a battle royal-style multiplayer online video game. It was developed and published by Blue hole in 2017, and has been growing in popularity ever since. It was released for Microsoft Windows, Xbox One, and PlayStation 4. In the game, 100 players are dropped into a map and they fight to be the last person standing.
2. The premise of Player Unknown's Battlegrounds is unique. The idea of a battle royal style game was in development for years, but it wasn't until Brendan Greene (aka Player Unknown) pitched his idea to Blue hole that it was turned into a reality. In 2016, Greene reached out to Chang-han Kim, vice president and executive producer at Blue hole Inc. to pitch him his ideas on a battle royal styled game that was inspired by other famous battle games including Dayz and H1Z1.
3. Kim was immediately interested in Greene's idea, but it wasn't until he released his own version of a battle royal mod for Arma 3 that got Kim's full attention. The concept behind Greene's mods were similar to his original pitch for a standalone game, and Blue hole quickly moved forward to develop Player Unknown's Battlegrounds. The developers planned on making their own battle royal style games before receiving Greene's pitch.

How Many Users Of PUBG In World

1. Based on the numbers available, it would appear that China has a higher percentage of players than any other country in the world. It is estimated that there are over 32 million daily active users (DAU) of Player Unknown's Battlegrounds. This means that on average, 1 out of every 10 people in China plays the game every day.
2. This number puts China as not only having more players than any other country in the world, but a higher percentage of users than anywhere else. The United States is estimated to have over 2 million DAU while India has 1.7 million and Japan at just under 1 million.
3. While a large percentage of players are from Asia, there are many other countries around the world who have embraced Player Unknown's Battlegrounds as well. These include Russia, South Korea and even European nations like France and Germany.

PUBG Player Base By Country

1. This map from Player Unknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG) shows the player base of the game by country. It can be seen that the countries that play the most are China, USA, Canada, South Korea and Russia. 
2. Australia has a surprisingly low amount of players considering it has such a big population. In comparison to other games such as League of Legends and Dota 2, many more people in these countries play PUBG than these other games.
3. The most significant country not on the map is India. This shows that there are still a lot of countries that don't have many people who play PUB G. Although it has only been released for a short amount of time in 2017, it still manages to get thousands and thousands of views on YouTube every day.
4. Although there are many people who don't play it, its popularity still continues to grow by day. It has already passed 10 million concurrent players and is steadily rising. This shows that over 100 million people play PUB G every month, which makes it one of, if not the most played online PC games at any given time.

How Many Players Play PUBG  2022

1. PUBG, or Player Unknown's Battlegrounds, has quickly become one of the most downloaded and played games in the world. With an estimated 10 million daily players and over 2 million concurrent players at any given moment, it can be hard to understand just how such a simple game can reach such popularity levels.
2. It's because of those features that make it such a unique and entertaining gameplay experience. Players must scavenge for weapons, ammo and supplies, while simultaneously keeping an eye on their enemies location so they can either evade them or take them out as quietly as possible.
3. It's a simple premise, and one that can easily be explained in just a few minutes. But it also means that anyone can pick it up and jump into playing almost immediately, without needing to spend time learning complex gameplay mechanics. That makes it an ideal game for many different types of gamers.

Is PUBG Mobile Still Popular 2022

1. PUBG Mobile has been in the spotlight for a little over a year now, ever since it was released in March of 2018. The game has been topping app store charts and is consistently one of the most downloaded games. And while its popularity might not last forever, its impact on the gaming industry will be felt for years to come.
2. According to reports from Google, PUB G Mobile continues to be one of the most downloaded games on both iOS and Android. It seems that even after more than a year on mobile devices, it’s still just as popular. And now that a host of other battle royal style games have launched in an attempt to imitate its success (including Fort nite and Apex Legends), many are wondering whether or not it will continue to dominate app store charts.
3. Despite predictions that PUB G Mobile would be eventually outpaced by other games, like Fortnite, it seems that isn’t happening any time soon. While it’s unlikely to maintain its current popularity in 2022, it will still likely have a large enough audience to keep publishers interested. The game has spent most of 2019 under pressure from Fort nite, but that hasn’t stopped it from continuing to top charts.
