New Year's resolutions smartphone manufacturers should make

PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds is one of the world's hottest games

PlayerUnknown or PUBG prices are one of the most in demand items for PC, Xbox One and PS4 gamers right now. It's already sold fifty million copies since launching in March 2017 on PC and that number swelled even more with the later Xbox One release. And with a December release on PS4 edging ever closer, that number is set to sky rocket again.  As for PC gamers though, contrary to popular belief, you don't have to buy all your Steam games direct from the Steam store as you'll see via our price comparison below.

Is PUBG available on PS4 and Xbox One?

Microsoft temporarily snagged PlayerUnknown's Battlgrounds as a console exclusive and it's out now. However, Bluepoint finally confirmed the game is coming to PS4 too on December 7 - one year after the Xbox One release. That's as we expected, given that's generally how long Microsoft's past timed exclusives have lasted as we saw with Rise of the Tomb Raider. It will be quite a bit more expensive on PS4 for a while given how new it is to the platform, so if you have an Xbox One or PC you could save money there.

The cheapest PUBG prices

There are discounts and bargains to be had by shopping around, and it doesn't matter where you are in the world, we'll look through reliable retailers to bring you the lowest possible price for your new PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds key on PC. We've also found a selection of the best PUBG Xbox One and PS4 prices too. PUGB is already pretty cheap on all platforms, but we expect to see plenty of other gaming discounts in the Cyber Monday deals event

But, what is PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds?

PlayerUnknown's Battlgrounds, came out of nowhere earlier in 2017 and has been a fixture in Steam's chart ever since. 

It's what's known as a last-man-standing shooter set on a huge 8x8KM island. Think of it as a deathmatch where everyone only gets one life - no respawns. Players must search for weapons scattered around the map, or steal them from defeated players all while desperately trying to avoid getting spotted themselves. If you've watched Battle Royale, you're on the right track, albeit with more wide open spaces and fewer murderous high schoolers.
