R45 was a pretty popular handgun back when it was released, but after the arrival of Desert Eagle, it has completely been forgotten. Its kill power pales whenever compared to Desert Eagle or classic R1895, and its magazine size or handling is nothing to brag about either. It’s hardly used nowadays and isn’t viable at all, especially in a competitive mode. R45 best fits as a makeshift weapon before a player find any primary weap

Every new update to PUBG comes with a slew of patch notes, gameplay fixes, and minute changes to the way weapon damage, item handling, and other invisible game mechanics are handled. While there are already many guides on the best weapons in PUBG's Season 7 , what follows below is a detailed explanation of some of the best locations in PUBG's updated version of Vikendi for dropping into, be it for loot or for tactical advant

In a marketplace crowded with Battle Royale titles , PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds on PS4 manages to deliver a fine, albeit flawed rendition on the genre, which is somewhat of a shame considering the lengthy amount of time it took for PUBG Corp. to finish and release it on the console. After all, with the game having been available for quite a while on Android, iOS, PC, and Xbox One prior to being obtainable on PlayStation 4, one would think that a lot of the lessons learned from those versions would have been applied to the PS4 iteration to eliminate any lingering issues in the p

After severe backlash over The Culling 2 and its following closure, developer Xavient would attempt to reboot The Culling as The Culling: Origins , billing it as a free to play title in 2018. By then, the market had been taken over by immensely popular titles such as Fortnite and PUBG , and it would announce its impending cancellation in March of 2

Of course, the core elements of the battle royale genre were well established long before its release, but PUBG pulled the essential experience together and delivered it to a much bigger audience. The fact that it's still the go-to solution for a more grounded, realistic battle royale experience today is a strong testament to its wo

To be perfectly clear, Nuclear Winter is a great thing in the context of Fallout 76 . It manages to breathe a little bit of life into a title that most gamers had given up for dead after its perfectly disastrous launch, and it's fun in its own, incredibly strange, signature Bethesda brand of utter lun

Once players have got a hang at it, they can one-shot enemies in a blaze without even zooming in or peeking. This gun is especially helpful in deathmatches, literally turning enemies into a pile of ragdolls if used right. Using the perfect attachments will make also make this gun unbeatable—especially with the suppressor and extended magaz

PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds offers the chance to explore and scrap through the three gigantic maps of Miramar, Erangel, and Gaming Censorship Sanhok–with Vikendi having just recently entered the Public Test Server to boot. One's tasked with scrounging for consumables, armor, and weapons to survive matches populated with up to 100 players, as a storm circle slowly encroaches and forces those still alive to duke it out in tense, ever-closer firefights. This can be done as a Solo endeavor, or in Duos and 4-person Squads, but the goal essentially remains the same no matter the size of the team, and that is to be the only survivor(s) at the end of the ma

PUBG's Season 7 provides a dangerous new environment for players to traverse, but thankfully they won't have to worry about things like falling through the ice or dying from hypothermia. Instead, players will have to keep an eye on moving trains, evidence of vehicle traffic, and the ever-present looming blue circle which, while it still does the same amount of damage as gamers are used to, provides a smaller initial safe area than people are used to. There are a number of new and revised areas in Season 7's version of Vikendi, and some of the best ones to drop into are detailed be

As a squad-based game, Fortnite players rely on each other. Players also rely on teammates in PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds. The two games have become household names because of their addictiveness and inventiven

There are few places more exciting for the circle to close on than the Cosmodrome. Not only does it look like a scene straight out of the end of one of the old James Bond 007 movies, but there is one of the largest structures ever to dot PUBG's landscape located at the Cosmodrome (an old missile silo, pictured above) which has the potential to see multiple teams on multiple levels firing up and down at each other in may

But which ones are actually worth your time? With such a remarkably lengthy catalog of battle royale titles looking to cash in on the fad, the sheer number of options can be just a little overwhelming. Just dive into the list below to see the top five battle royale games that are definitely worth checking out (if you haven't already), alongside five that should be avoided at all co
