PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG)
is an online multiplayer battle royale game developed and published by PUBG Corporation, a subsidiary
of South Korean video game company Bluehole. The game is based on previous mods that were created by
Brendan "PlayerUnknown" Greene for other games using the film Battle Royale for inspiration, and
expanded into a standalone game under Greene's creative direction. In the game, up to one hundred
players parachute onto an island and scavenge for weapons and equipment to kill others while avoiding
getting killed themselves. The available safe area of the game's map decreases in size over time,
directing surviving players into tighter areas to force encounters. The last player or team standing
wins the round.
