PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds Will not be Fully Launching on Schedule

Shocking? Not at all.

This should not come as a surprise to anyone, but PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds will definitely not be "fully releasing" on time. In case you're unaware, Bluehole Studios had previously announced that they plan to leave early access after around 6 months, but Brendan Greene, aka PlayerUnknown himself, has recently come out and stated that this won't be the case.

Over the past few months I have done a lot of interviews, and in many of them, I said we hoped to be out of Early Access six months after we first launched. I've come to realize that restricting the window to a specific month could hinder us from delivering a fully featured game and/or lead to disappointment within the community if the launch deadline is not met.


To people who actually play the game, this is not the least bit shocking. Battlegrounds still has major optimization issues at this point in time, and it's far from being a complete, polished game. Bluehole has made millions since PUBG launched a few months ago, and they are definitely aware that if they put enough time and money in, they could have a truly amazing battle royale. Let's just hope that this isn't another case of an early access game staying unreleased for years to come.
