After that, DOTA 2 sits atop the leaderboard with 1,291,328 peak players. PUBG’s next milestone is 1 million peak players. But a Battle Royale mode could be just what the franchise needs. Obviously, 343 shouldn’t ditch the Halo multiplayer we all know and love. I remember reading the books about how Spartans would be dropped off to fend for themselves during training. The Division and Ghost Recon would be perfect.
Ubisoft is already thinking about using their current games as springboards into the genre. Big publishers aren’t going to sit on the sidelines for long.
Now, we wait for the inevitable Battle Royale rush. If PUBG can put pressure on DOTA 2, GTA V could fall to second on Xbox One. I want to see how the Xbox One version shakes up the top games on that platform. New maps, vaulting, and the Xbox One version is keeping Bluehole busy. Updates will come a little less frequently now, though. A developer who would push frequent content updates and fix bugs quickly. The genre just needed the right developer to come along. H1Z1: King of the Kill showed the Battle Royale genre was ripe for an explosion.
There’s a lot more interesting info over on SteamSpy’s Twitter. It also pulls the least engaged of Payday 2 and Left 4 Dead 2. PUBG is pulling the most engaged players of CS:GO and H1Z1. They used to play CS:GO 50% more than an average person, now they play 30% less. 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. The one-two punch of Valve’s DOTA 2 and CS:GO stands no longer.
