PUBG: Battlegrounds Is Now Available for Free on PS4

Hold up.

PUBG: Battlegrounds? Is that actually it's title now?

Means I don't need to go to an ATM Machine to pay for it now it's free to play 🤣

Long overdue though.

Like way, way overdue.

Might give this a go at some point.
EDIT: I have this in my library, but there is no way I've paid for it lol.

This is just too late.

@Haruki_NLI
Wait, so it's Player Unknowns Battlegrounds Battlegrounds now?

@Haruki_NLI
It was already overdue when it finally released on PS4. Wonder if it's even worth it now.
More than enough BR games that actually have good and smooth gameplay and game design like Apex and even Fortnite looks more and more fun to the point that I'll have to commit a blasphemy and install it again

@Quintumply @BoldAndBrash I guess the name Player Unknowns Battlegrounds is now the brand and the subtitle is the game within it?

Weird.

This game is honestly so bad its actually incredible.

Its perfect on mobile/ipad but as a console game its honestly embarrassing.

I get that PC sort of made it big online but as far as battle royale games go, this is so far behind the times now its insane.

@GoodGame it was on ps plus either last year or 2020

@lolwhatno
Apex brought me back to the good old COD4/MW2 days. Same devs obviously, but damn. The sound design, impact you feel and the gameplay is so fun. Not to mention the teamwork. It's designed so you actually need them, which encourages good teamwork.

I hate PUBG with a passion, but I do like watching PUBG Salty Deaths & Funny Voice Chat videos on YouTube.

Ha! Jokes on you, PUBG. I could already play for free because it was given on PS+! Not that I ever would…

PUBG was pretty good on the PC when it released.

A more "grown up" BR game. However, from what I remember the PS4 version was really poor and unoptimized.

I wonder if thats changed? Any chance of a retrospective look now its went F2P @Quintumply

@alexbolton2 Ah ok lol. Thanks.

Any PS5 upgrades inbound? Liked it on PC but it looked and ran poorly on PS4.

@lolwhatno
Lol, it is faster paced for sure and more emphasis on manoeuvring through the world, but if you've got an open mind, you'll enjoy it. I've got friends who were COD fans and they couldn't get passed the BR with different playable personality characters, but that's its charm imo.
Hope you'll have fun! I need to hop back in again, only played single player games for like a year now...

I saw it yesterday, laughed and then continue scrolling.

@BoldAndBrash @Haruki_NLI Don't worry, soon they'll abbreviate it to PUBGBG before adding ':Battlegrounds' to it.

@GoodGame It was a PS+ title a while back.

Played one round when it was free on Plus. Got into the last 4 alive. Died. Deleted. Battle royales just arent my thing..

Huge missed opportunity not to get VLDL to do the live action trailer. They've been making free commercials for them for years now.

I need to get back to it some time.
I never understood the hate. At least it gives you option for first or third perspective and does it well like every pro consumer game should.

I rather play some game, than waste my time on this...

It was already a ps plus game didn't bother with it though don't like battle royales

The buyers regret I had with playing this on the PS4. Managed thirty minutes and uninstalled what was an abomination of a port. Think I played full whack for it on release, lesson learned

It looks like a PS1 game.. PUBG is horrible, janky, and downright laggy af.. I’ll just stick w the ever so beautiful Fortnite for my PvP shooter itch ty.. it’s always been free
