Will PUBG become the new star of the world Esports platform?

Gamescom officially kicked off today, and Brendan “Player Unknown” Greene gave players a sneak peek into some of the new technology that will appear in PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds.

This new technology will add to the long list of upgrades the game has made since it introduced Early Access in March, including a host of bug fixes and optimizations, and additional content. used as new weapons and first-person servers.

Greene made sure to mention that this new terrain detail is a work in progress and there’s no exact timeline for when it will be released. But perhaps it is more likely that this new update will be announced this year.

All the successes of PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds are well documented. The game has reached 600,000 concurrent players on Steam, and PUBG has been a huge hit on Twitch as well. But until now it is still not considered a complete esports.

When Liquid announced that they were forming a PUBG team a few weeks ago, the esports community took notice. Liquid will join the ranks of other organizations such as TSM, Cloud9, Luminosity, and Tempo Storm to compete in this Hunger Games. All of these teams will compete at the Gamescom event, which runs from August 23 to 26.

Liquid’s PUBG roster includes Keiron “Scoom” Prescott, Oliver “Ollywood” Tell, Björn “Molnman” Jansson and Daniel “Hayz” Heaysman. Arhancet thinks this roster is the perfect team for Liquid’s first foray into this arena.

“With Scoom, Molnman, Hayz and Ollywood, we’ve got four incredibly talented players and high teamwork that will leave a mark on the esports scene with Team Liquid,” he said.

Scoom is also quite excited for the future, and he understands the pressures of being picked by an organization like Liquid.
