Now the question is, what games is PUBG pulling players from? SteamSpy is diving into that very question in an interesting Twitter thread this morning.ĥ5% of PUBG owners are CS:GO players. Since June, PUBG’s peak player counts are up nearly 400%. Peak player count was sitting around 480,000 on August 1. Here’s what the growth chart looks like since launch.īut it’s the past month where PUBG has exploded. But the sheer growth PUBG is seeing right now is insane. After PUBG eclipsed Fallout 4’s peak player count, I thought it might challenge CS:GO’s number. That number put gaming’s newest phenomenon over the 850,485 peak seen on CS:GO.Īnyone who followed the success of H1Z1: King of the Kill knew PUBG was going to be popular. All vying for chicken dinner at the same time. PUBG hit 862,413 players over the weekend. Set at night, this skirmish starts with the gas already advanced around Pleasant Valley, which means that the matches will play out much faster.The one-two punch of Valve’s DOTA 2 and CS:GO stands no longer. This is a limited-time skirmish will be playable on the weekends. In addition, three new major landmarks have been added to the world map: Coy’s Car Salvage, Ponyvale Equestrian Estates, and Emerald Hydra, Site 7.įor those wanting a speedier challenge, there's the “Pleasant Valley Nightmare”. There's a new gas ring system in place, ensuring that final rings utilise the enture map, and matches can now end anywhere on the terrain, not just in the middle.

Players can see individual kills and assists for all team members at the end of the match.

That team score goes up whenever a team member gets a kill or assist, as well as whenever a full team gets eliminated. With over 150 people in any one battle, the game is often a last person standing affair, but now there will be team leaderboards and scoring, meaning that players will get scores for themselves and their teammates in duos or quintets.
