PUBG may be giving up ground to Fortnite, but it made Bluehole a crapton of money last year. MMO Culture reports that the company brought in over $630 million US in revenue 2017, with over a third of that being pure profit mostly thanks to PUBG’s success.
Meanwhile, the company is testing a new map for the game, an ensmallened, unfinished version of the 4×4 km Savage map. Everyone with access to the experimental test server is able to log in and play as of tonight through the wee hours of the morning on Thursday.
The PC version of the game also got a patch today; it updates the spectator mode for viewing who killed you and how. I bet that boat being murdered in the image above will be really grateful for this mode.
As for the mobile edition? Motherboard has a piece out basically declaring that it’s already dead in the water, ruined because of people playing with keyboard-and-mouse setups that defy the spirit of mobile play in the first place.
PC players, we've deployed a new build on our test servers. Come help us test the new Killer Spectate mode along side other changes and bug fixes. Full details here: https://t.co/EQ92dCPy75
