PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds Wraps Up First Alpha Wave

Bluehole has announced that PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds has completed its initial round of alpha testing after only four months in development as a stand-alone game. Over six hundred players took part in several events and provided welcome feedback. Players responded particularly well to core features, responsiveness and stability.

In development for PC using Unreal Engine 4, the standalone game will expand the core Battle Royale experience enjoyed by millions of players into a highly competitive player vs. player (PvP) game in a dynamic open world. PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds will put up to 64 players on a remote island for a winner-takes-all showdown where strategic gameplay is as important as shooting skills. Players will enter a last-man-standing battle where they try to locate weapons, vehicles and supplies in a graphically and tactically rich battleground that eventually forces players into a shrinking safe area as they engage in a tense and spectacular fight to the death.
