The announcement came during PC Gamer’s E3 2017 PC Gaming Show from PUBG’s creative director Brendan Greene. You can (and should) pick up PUBG for PC on Steam for $29.99.Big updates are coming to PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, including improved mobility, new weapons, and changing weather. And having someone friendly to talk to while you lie in wait for your opponents doesn't hurt either. Shared victory, allies to cover your escape, and the ability for teammates to revive you change the dynamic of the game. These moments are made even better if playing on a team. The brief spikes of gunplay perfectly cap numerous periods of hiding in wait, rewarding the player with victory, a heart-pounding escape, or a quick death. You could storm an apartment building, unnoticed, under the cover of artillery fire, then make your way to the top floors to pick off enemies trying to escape the shelled area. Maybe you're hiding behind a tree on the edge of safety with a scoped rifle hoping to pick-off players as they desperately try to outrun the blue. Or, you could be camped on a roof, using the dune buggy below as bait and then as an eventual escape to quickly move further into the safe zone. You may decide to breach a farm house because you've barely escaped the blue and badly need first aid only to find yourself face to face with a hidden enemy. The circle gives players a reason to be in a close proximity, but the actual gun fights develop organically, giving each match a sort of story. It forces the surviving players to congeal, fight and relocate until only one remains. This King-of-the-Ever-Shrinking Hill mechanic is genius. Even if you're lucky and can camp the same zone through multiple circles, you may eventually be flanked from multiple directions. This corrals players towards a common area, eventually leading to a tense standoff between the last few remaining players. Each sub-sequential circle gets smaller and smaller, but is always located inside the previous Safe Zone. An outer, blue circle slowly closes in on the Safe Zone, and if you get stuck out in the blue, you'll slowly take damage until you get to safety, or die. You'll need to make your way to constantly diminishing Safe Zone, marked with a white circle on your map. Your objective is to be the last man, woman or team standing. The game randomizes which weapons, armor, vehicles and accessories appear as well as their starting locations, keeping each game fresh even if you manage to land in the same spot multiple times. These include sniper rifles, sub machine guns, pistols, grenades and even frying pans. After jumping out of the cargo plane and parachuting onto the island's surface, players scramble to nearby buildings hoping to find weapons of varying effectiveness.

The island of Erangel is large, with buildings varying in size from huge military complexes, to mid-sized apartment buildings, to tiny, van-sized sheds. But what it lacks in polish, it more than makes up for in intense, heart-pounding gameplay. Currently in early access on Steam, there's little in way of story, in-game instruction or player progression in this first-person battle royale. You sort of make up your own story as you go along in ALL-CAPS PLAYERUNKNOWN'S BATTLEGROUNDS. There are only two ways to leave the island. If you do make it to the zone, you'll be exposed to your fellow prisoners, all of which are gunning for each other, and you. If you don't make it to that zone soon, you'll be exposed to deadly microwaves from a satellite in geosynchronous orbit. Upon landing, just as you get your bearings, your map points you towards a large circular area. Surrounding you in air as you fall are 99 other prisoners, eager to land and fight. Fast approaching below you is the island of Erangel, an abandoned 8 by 8 kilometer island littered with guns, ammo and vehicles. You're given a parachute, a map and a hard shove out of the cargo hold.

You wake up in daze, a prisoner on a cargo plane. I've been playing PLAYERUNKNOWN'S BATTLEGROUNDS for a few weeks, and even though it lacks polish due to being in early access, I'm hooked and here's why: Rather than bore you with the reasons for my absence, I'd prefer to recommend a game.
