PlayerUnknown s Battlegrounds Developer Reveals Next Game
Bluehole, the developer behind PC-gaming sensation PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds ( PUBG ), has launched the site for its upcoming MMORPG title, **Ascent: Infinite Realm ** . The studio has set high expectations for itself with the runaway success of PUBG, which has consistently been among Twitch's most-streamed and most-watched games since its early-access release last Ma
This tool isn't all Battlegrounds needs to work well as a first-person shooter, though. Players have noted some scaling issues that aren't apparent in third-person but stand out in first-person. For instance, windows and some vehicles can be too high for a standing player to see through or over while in first-person, while being a good height for the third-person camera. Sometimes shots in first-person hit walls when players aim just above those walls. For the first-person mode in Battlegrounds to work, these bugs will need addressing alongside the addition of the FOV slider, and it's not clear from PlayerUnknown's Tweet what steps have been taken for these fi
While we'll have to wait and see how PlayerUnknown addresses the issues of inaccurate aim and seeing over obstacles, Battlegrounds players should at least be able to vault over obstacles more easily s
68 different games received a nomination, with Guerrilla Games' Horizon Zero Dawn leading the pack with ten nods. The Legend of Zelda: The Breath of the Wild follows with six nominations. Hellblade: Senua’s Sacrifice , Uncharted: The Lost Legacy, and Cuphead got five nods. Gorogoa, Playerunknown’s Battlegrounds , Super Mario Odyssey received four nominati
Battle Royale first-timers will hopefully enjoy the novelty of the large-scale experience and the intricacies of how encounters can play out differently every single time, and how much there is to explore in the game's world. But for anyone who appreciates quality shooters or knows the genre well, PUBG on Xbox One is now the clear winner of a few other awards we're going to make up now: the worst shooter controls on a console, the worst inventory management system on a console, and the worst performing action game on conso
Chumacera is the husk of Miramar’s once thriving textile industry. Long abandoned factories overlook a main road lined with residential and commercial buildings. Verticality in both the buildings and terrain make this town an exciting location to loot- high risk, high opportun
Assuming the mobile port of PUBG is a success, the game will become a true powerhouse and has potential to break video game sales records. Alternatively, Tencent may opt to ditch PUBG 's initial asking price and make a profit using the game's loot box system and microtransactions. Either way, it's hard to see how a mobile version of PUBG won't be a big moneymaker for everyone invol
PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds has built up a massive following in the PC gaming community, with enough players on Steam to go toe to toe with Grand Theft Auto V and challenge even Valve's own games. All this while the game is still in development. One update coming to the game soon is expected to offer a new way of playing PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds by letting gamers dive into first-person only servers, and the official PlayerUnknown Twitter just showed off how an important first-person setting lo
The ability to expand field of view should be helpful for players who felt the standard first-person view was too narrow. PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds is already competitive, but the extra degree of immersion and risk that comes with the first-person mode may make it more competitive. And the FOV options should satisfy serious FPS players who are used to this tool in other competitive shooters like Rainbow Six Siege or Overwat
The shipping and transport capitol of Miramar, La Cobrería’s most prominent feature is it’s enormous Rail Yard. Here, players will hunt and be hunted among the half-buried cargo of a long dead industry. Careful players should loot the schools and campuses that dot this town before attempting to hold the Yard.

Bluehole seems to have an especially broad demographic in mind with Ascent: Infinite Realm . The trailer practically shouts that there's something here for everyone: Dragons to hunt, flying aircrafts to pilot (and destroy), properties and communities to build, and more. It'll be up to Bluehole, though, to ensure that it doesn't spread itself too thin; that each element is sufficiently fleshed-out to warrant the repeated revisiting that maintains successful online games. Lightning struck once with PUBG vehicles — it remains to be seen whether it'll strike ag
A trailer for the game - seen above - clocks in at over five minutes — and shows off quite a bit. There are indeed airships and dragons, along with jetpack-like boosters, gatling guns, mechs, and estate-building. At various points throughout the trailer, players can be seen taking control of airships, be it as pilots or turret gunners. The website suggests that PvP airship combat will be a staple of the game, explaining that "Using airships, flying mounts, or free falling, you can experience multi-dimensional battles through warfare in the open s
