PUBG Main Features

PlayerUnknown‘s Battleground, famously known as PUBG, is a free-to-play shooting game published by KRAFTON, Inc. and developed by PUBG Corporation. The game was released on 21st Dec 2017 under the action and adventure genre. This massively multiplayer game requires players to be the last man or team standing.

Drop, Land, Survive and Loot

PUBG is set across various, diverse battlegrounds with many possibilities. Players are dropped in a strategic location on an island and they must loot suppliers and survive threats from other teams. At the time of drop, players have no weapons; hence, they must loot arsenals, including armour, guns and medical kits. Players can form teams and enter the original Battle Royale experience only available in PUBG: Battlegrounds (support up to 100 players).

Realistic Weapons

The game‘s realistic physics extends to the weapons choice and supplies. PUBG is well-known for its extensive arsenal (Pistols, assault rifles, shotguns and sniper rifles) and realistic gunplay. When shooting, each weapon has a different physical appearance and recoil patterns, just like the real one. Bullet shells drop physically and are different for each gun and shooting technique.

Accessories

Additional attachments like suppressors, scopes, night visions and grips improve the overall gunplay, further enhancing a customisable combat experience. They are useful in changing weather conditions like rain and fog and day and night.

Interactive Maps

PUBG has several maps with different challenges and terrain. Each map offers a unique experience and requires different strategies, making the entire gunplay engaging, regardless of whether you are a competitive gamer or a casual player.

Deston and Taego : It is one of the largest maps with many landmarks and cities to explore, offering players plenty of options when it comes to loots, landing zones and combat. The island offers great features like ascenders and airboats. Players can access tactical gear and Bluechip Detectors, allowing them to detect threats within a specific radious.

Erangel: It is the original map of the game, with many locations to hide and plan your tactical combat. It features a mixture of buildings and houses in urban areas and military zones. Some houses offer a good landing zone as they are located in unmarked areas.

Miramar: It is a city-centric desert map (2nd in the game). This 8x8 km map offers a perfect ground for snipers in long-range combat thanks to a vast barren land and sheer landscape.

Vikendi:This 4th playable map in PUBG features a snowy island. The battlefield was inspired by Balkan settings and offers unique tactical opportunities.

Mobility

With huge and multiple maps, PUBG offers players several ways to move fast and quickly from place to place. With vehicles like armoured trucks, cars, motorcycles and boasts, you can move across battlefields but can attract enemies on the way due to noise. The use of vehicles can either enhance your survival or accelerate your elimination.

Conclusion

PUBG has established itself in the esports betting arena thanks to its high skill ceiling, competitive gameplay, deep mechanism and evolving content. While fans can bet on different markets on the game, they still get to enjoy the thrilling experience of the Battle Royale genre.
