The popular battle royale PlayersUnknown's BattleGround, called PUBG shortly, has managed to sell over 70 million copies across all platforms it is supported on, like PC and consoles. The huge achievement comes after two and a half years after the game was released, marking a huge achievement for battle royale type of games. The PUBG Corporation, makers of the game, decided to celebrate the new milestone with a release of a remastered Sanhok map. The new Sanhok map is redesigned from the ground up and the developer describes it as "leaner, meaner, and more deadly than ever before!". The new map will go live with the season 8 update, which is going live on July 22nd on Steam, and July 30th on consoles and Google Stadia.
 
I am quite surprised to see the game still being supported so well for so long.

    They are doing a good job of support after release but it's a huge money maker. The good thing is for anyone to beat PUBG the developer would have to do better then what PUBG does with support after launch and make a better game. It can be done of course but it's great news for gamers.

    Watching what is popular in gaming just reminds me that people have no imagination. They just play whatever the people around them play. If their friends were playing with a potato, they'd want a potato too. They'd go so far as get all the potato DLC and buy a bunch of loot crates to dress up their potatoes.

    There is a lot of potato salad in PUBG. 😏
