Bluehole Studio today announced that its battle royale first-person shooter, PLAYERUNKNOWN’S BATTLEGROUNDS, has sold two million copies worldwide. PLAYERUNKNOWN’S BATTLEGROUNDS was released in late March and it took Bluehole Studio almost a month in order to hit this milestone.
PLAYERUNKNOWN’S BATTLEGROUNDS is described as a last-man-standing shooter being developed with community feedback. Starting with nothing, players must fight to locate weapons and supplies in a battle to be the lone survivor.
The game is currently available in Early Access. The team expects to fully release the game in approximately six months, and is going to focus on implementing the modding tools and readying a fully polished battle royale experience.
“We have weapons and attachments, animations and gunplay in the game, and will concentrate on tuning each.”
The final version of the game will incorporate modding tools that will allow players to customize and play the game the way they want. Furthermore, it will feature more content and new features that will be based on feedback from the community during Early Access.

So it won’t ever come out of EA (Early Axis)?
Nope Never. it will sell a million more, they release a new patch and create more hype/attention and then everyone moves to another “Hot” EA/survival game. the only finished survival game is Don’t Starve.
Isn’t that 2d gane?
It is, and so what?
Yup an amazing 2d game.
Glad to hear it, hopefully they’ll work on removing a lot of the clunkyness before it leaves EA.
its better then arma 3 and h1z1 keep up the good work.
jesus wtf, this is picking up speed way faster than any of the recent EA shooters on PC.
This game is succeeding because Daycrate is greedy as f
How would they sent more players for being anti consumer?.
I’ll jump on this once it leaves early access
You can’t jump on digital games just like you can’t literally surf the Internet. I’ve tried.
He meant digital jump xD
I hope the game gets mounts as DLC. They could add Chochobos; giant bipedal chicken/ostrich type creatures. Just don’t call them Chochobos for copyright reasons. Call them “Cocobos” and make them brown, like chocolate.
I dont see anything special in this game to be such a success, and the games visuals on ultra are nothing special for the insane requirements to run them(i know its alpha) most people with decent gpu run this at low or medium and at those settings the textures and shadows looks like something from the ps2 era.
