In a community announcement on Steam , PUBG revealed what makes Sanhok different to its larger rivals and what gamers can expect when they explore the dense jungles and forgotten temples of Southeast Asia. A big draw is the fact that loot will spawn more frequently than on the Erangel and Mirimar maps and there is a brand new weapon fighting the SCAR-L rifle for fan-favorite status. New to Sanhok is the QBZ95, an assault rifle with 5.56mm rounds that can hold up to 40 rounds. That isn't all that's new with the latest update tho

This is hardly the first time tensions have been raised between the two companies over Fortnite's battle-royal mode. When the new mode became available last year, vice-president of PUBG Corp. parent company Bluehole Chang Han Kim expressed concern over the new game mode copying PUBG , saying "After listening to the growing feedback from our community and reviewing the gameplay for ourselves, we are concerned that Fortnite may be replicating the experience for which PUBG is kno

However, the facts remain: Fortnite is here, free-to-play, and, unlike its Battle Royale inspiration, doesn’t include any " gambling " for skins. PUBG , on the other hand, features randomized crates earned through regular play, with premium crates unlockable by keys. Those keys need to be purchased with real money, which leaves players unwilling to buy them, which leaves the option of either keeping unopened crates inert in their inventory or selling them on the Steam marketplace. These mechanics foster an elaborate economy, generating a system which fuels continued income to the game. On the other hand, it also creates undue frustration for many of its players, all of whom have already spent money to purchase the game in the first place and feel put off by microtransacti

With Fortnite eschewing loot boxes entirely in its Battle Royale mode (although individual seasons offer their own unique cosmetics, similar to Overwatch ), it’s already ahead of the curve. Perhaps by the time Sanhok arrives, the wait for for a more stable game will seem like it was worth it. However, with a never-ending stream of cosmetics and constant reminders for microtransactions blemishing player inventory, all while many of them experience blatant performance issues, PUBG Corp. should keep running — that blue wall might be closer than it lo

With Sanhok's smaller scale, matches are expected to be quicker and a dynamic weather system promises to cause trouble as PUBG whittles its 100 players down to one lucky winner. Sanhok has already been live on the test servers through four testing periods, but the time has come for its general release as developers promise yet more changes to what the test gamers have already s

Both Bluehole and Epic Games had worked together in the past, but that relationship was damaged once the latter launched Fortnite 's battle royale mode back in September of last year. Shortly after the mode launched, Bluehole Vice President Chang Han Kim released a statement saying that the company was " concerned that Fortnite may be replicating the experience for which PUBG Collectibles is known ." In the months since release, Epic Games' third-person shooter has surpassed PUBG in both player count and revenue, which has presumedly hurt relationships between the two companies further. Additionally, Epic Games has teamed up with Neowiz Games, not Bluehole, to bring Fortnite to the Korea market in the second quarter of 2

PUBG_Riggles gets to the heart of the matter, even admitting that the constant faucet of new crates and cosmetics releasing while game-breaking bugs remain unattended to is a terrible look. It sounds like PUBG Corp. is indeed building out its development team to tend to these pressing matters, but he also insists that the crates aren’t going anywhere, as they remain central to the continued monetization of the game. While this might not be what many players want to hear, the honesty coming from PUBG Corp. is, at least, somewhat refresh

While recent E3 2018 leaks have proven to be real, it's always worth taking rumored information with a grain of salt. Regardless of whether or not this is Sony's schedule for their pre-E3 press conference, gamers won't have to wait long to find out as the PlayStation E3 briefing is in just one w

A 4chan user leaked the internal memo, which reveals all the teasers, trailers, and demos Sony PlayStation will be showcasing.
