About PUBG
PUBG is an online multiplayer battle royale game which was created in inspiration from the 2000 Japanese film Battle Royale under direction of Brendan Greene. The game was first released in September 2017 for Microsoft Windows. Free-to-play mobile version, PUBG Mobile was released in 2018 and has now become the best selling and most played video game with highest grossing.
In the PUBG game, up to 100 players parachute onto a place, searching for weapons and other tools to kill people to protect themselves from being killed. The safe area on the map reduces in size as the clock ticks so that the game becomes tougher. The last player or team who survives wins the game.
Since the game has been allegedly being harmful and addictive to youngsters, PUBG Mobile has been banned in some countries.
