PUBG achieved historical success - even exceeded GTA 5

  • 481

The popular game of battle-royale genre Playerunknown's Battlegrounds continues with success even though it's in sales only a few months, even though it's not a completed game, even though it's a whole new IP and worse - temporary exclusive for PC. Namely, PUBG this weekend in one moment played over 382,000 players on Steam.

Even though this is not particularly large number on almost five million copies sold, it's big enough to surpass even Grand Theft Auto V, which has about 7.5 million PC players. Playerunknown's Battlegrounds is ranked fourth in the number of active players on Steam, and in front of it are greats that will keep their positions for years.

It was the worst choice of the year that I decided not to buy the Deluxe version. I really didn't know that this game would be so popular.

Wait until full release and you will see more players than CSGO or Dota 2.

Well, if/when they'll make a good discount during the winter sale, the number of owners maybe will exceed 10mln )
