The Godfather of the the "Battle Royale", a love/hate relationship and despite the flaws it's still by far one of the best and most fun multiplayer games, nothing as exciting as your 1st chicken dinner, gets less exciting after you spend a huge amount of time playing it and winning more.

This is the highest amount of fun i had for 30$ i spent on anything in life, game is better played in Duo/Squad because some solo tend to be lonely and a bit boring when you don't have any action for 20 minutes.

For all the new players, this isn't an easy game, if you think you can win and master this game after 20 hours please don't bother buying it and start nagging in the reviews/forums/reddit, you need a huge amount of playtime and patience to become decent and learn the mechanics

Devs need to focus more on what is important to move this game to another level, especially if they want it to become an eSport game, which i don't see happening at the same scale they had in mind and not just because of the bugs in the game but the actual luck involved in each match (random weapons, armor, circle).

Game still good in 2023.

Hi, I am a lone indie developer from Kazakhstan, my first game, about Gaza called Battle for Desert City, is coming out on January 19, costs 10$.
I will be very pleased if you add to your Wishlist and purchase at release day, it will help me so much.
The game is made on Unreal Engine 5.3 What do you think?

@DirkDoom, you are wrong the first officially was a mod for ARMA which Brendan "Playerunknown" Greene made, it was called battle royale

He was then hired by sony to make H1Z1, yeah the PUBG guy worked on H1Z1, looks like you didnt know that. Then he united with bluehole to make PUBG

Tbh, Blackout is a much better game than this. It is faster paced, graphics are amazing, weapons are working properly. The only bad thing about it is that it is not on steam.
