Pubg is the fifth best selling video game with over fifty million copies sold on all platforms until June 2018. The game became so popular that it holds a maximum simultaneous player count of more than three million on Steam, which is a record for all windows based games on the platform.
Pubg is a battle royale game that can be played from both first-person or third-person perspective. It can be played solo or as a four-member team. Every match starts as players parachute from a plane onto a map area. Once the players land, they can search buildings and other sites to collect weapons, armors, gears and other loots. Loots can also be collected from dead players. Every few minutes, the playzone or 'the circle' starts to shrink towards a random location. All players caught outside the circle take damage and is eventually eliminated if he/she does not enter the safe zone in time. The last man or the team to stay alive is the winner, and is declared 'Winner Winner Chicken Dinner'.
