If you’ve ever fancied giving Playerunknown’s Battlegrounds a strive, now might be the time to do it, as a result of over the subsequent few days it’s holding a free weekend. It kicked off yesterday and can run till 6pm BST on Monday the eighth of June, so there’s nonetheless loads of time left to get droppin’ with the boys. And when you instantly determine PUBG is the battle royale for you, you may choose it up for 50% during the free weekend.
You can obtain and play it at no cost on Steam proper now, and when you do wanna purchase it that 50% low cost brings its value all the way down to an affordable £14/$15/€15. PUBG Corp do note that you simply received’t have the ability to make in-game purchases when you’re simply taking part in the game at no cost, you should personal it to have the ability to purchase further stuff.
Short of that, the free weekend provides you entry to the entire pretty issues there are to do in PUBG.

There are some strange issues to see in PUBG, too. Last month, the game’s Vikendi map got a big overhaul, increasing its abandoned dinosaur theme park. A bit random, I do know, but when (like me) you’re the kind of participant that’s drawn to game lore, they lately made an in-universe documentary all about the history of said dinosaur theme park. It’s an excellent little bit of enjoyable, and higher but, it’s hosted by none aside from Jonathan Frakes.
