The battle royale shooter PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds is getting exciting new features. Soon players will be able to vault over obstacles and through windows. Additionally, changing weather and a new weapon, the OTS Groza, will be introduced.
Everyone wants a piece of Brendan Greene. He is the PlayerUnknown, although many people know him now.
His battle royale shooter PUBG is a hit on Steam, and Greene is making the big press rounds. There’s hardly an event without the rising star. Yesterday he was at Microsoft, to announce the port of his game for Xbox One, and this evening he will stop by the PC Gaming Show to showcase new features for the ongoing PC version of his game.
PUBG is still in Early Access and constantly receiving new features. The new ones are expected “soon”.
Vaulting – like an action hero in a movie
Players will soon be able to vault over objects like action heroes in movies, such as cars or walls. Players will also be able to vault through windows. The animation will adapt to the height of the obstacle.
A weather system is also coming to PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds. In the video we embedded above, there are some examples from fog to rain-soaked streets.
Russian Bullpup rifle comes to PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds
A new weapon is also coming, a so-called “bullpup” rifle: the OTS Groza. It looks cool and thus belongs in his game, says Greene. The OTs-14 Groza is a Russian rifle and fires 7.62 ammunition. It has been in service with the Russian army since 1994.
In the game, it is supposed to be a hybrid SMG with high firepower, but it should also perform well over long distances.
Currently, there are still cleaning weeks in the game. After focusing on the client’s performance, the developers are now working on server performance. Additionally, two new maps are in development and a “full 3D replay system.”
