PLAYERUNKNOWN'S BATTLEGROUNDS

Posted by jesuslewis on August 12th, 2017

Since it hit Steam Early Access in March 2017, PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds has attracted millions of players for a collective total of 10 million games played so far. With number of minutes played soaring well into the billions and max concurrent users impressively high for a newer Early Access game, the Battle Royale-inspired massively multiplayer online shooter is undoubtedly one of the most popular games this year.

The team over at Bluehole were nice enough to give IGN an exclusive peek at some of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds internal statistics, ranging from most popular weapon types, number of kills broken down by firearm, longest kill, and more. You can watch a video breakdown of the numbers in the video above or check out the gallery below for a closer look at the data.

The data was captured between March 23 and July 19, so the numbers are approximate and not fully up to date, but they should give you a pretty good idea of just how much PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds has been played since it hit Steam. (And also how skilled PUBG players are — we really hope that longest distance kill wasn't a hacker!)
