Fortnite vs PUBG
Keeping your blood inside your body isn't easy in PUBG—not with 99 other players trying to put holes in you. Our guide to staying alive will definitely help.
PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds was the first of the battle royale-style games to really explode in popularity. Created by Brendan Greene, the self-proclaimed creator of the battle royale genre, PUBG is slower-paced and more realistic than Fortnite. It's not quite a full-blown military sim, but it's close. PUBG costs $30 USD on Steam and features a variety of maps and game modes.
Similar to Fortnite, a match in PUBG is a 100-man free for all over a massive expanse of terrain. Each round starts in a plane that flies over the map, allowing players some degree of choice in where they want to start. Once on the ground, you must scavenge for weapons and equipment to survive. After a few minutes, a lethal blue energy field begins closing on the map, effectively limiting the play area. After this blue circle first appears, it begins to tighten the play area every few minutes, condensing players together until only one survives.
