PUBG Creator Congratulates Call of Duty On Black Ops 4’s Blackout Mode

3.6
This week was a pretty big one for the Call of Duty community with the official reveal of Black Ops 4 and its debut in the Battle Royale genre with its forthcoming Blackout mode.

And while we don’t know too much about it just yet, fans are already looking forward to it. Not only that but one of the power players in the Battle Royale genre has come forward to congratulate Activision on the introduction of the mode.

The creator of PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, “PLAYERUNKNOWN,” recently took to Twitter to welcome Call of Duty into the fold. “Oh, hai, @CallofDuty...welcome to the club,” he noted, complete with a little heart symbol. You can see his tweet below.


This is a little sweeter than we’ve seen the PUBG team in the past, as they ruthlessly went after Epic Games shortly after it introduced a Battle Royale mode to Fortnite last year. We’re not sure why the attitude change is taking place, but it might be just because they’re cordial -- or they don’t want to be swept under the rug by fans that keep tweeting stuff like “#RIPFortnite”.

This didn’t stop some fans from responding in epic fashion. We’ve included a few of those tweets below.


It’s not really known just how much Call of Duty’s Blackout mode is going to affect both Fortnite and PUBG just yet. We haven’t even seen the mode in action and probably won’t until sometime later this summer. But some fans are convinced that it’s going to be the next big thing especially with it being associated with one of the biggest gaming franchises on the planet.

Maze I hope PUBG keeps its player count up but I see Blackout taking a lot of players based on graphics alone.


not just that its going to be a completely different speed of game. pubg is slow and methodical. I imagine this will be a faster paced gameplay


That is very true, even though we dont have all the details that's very believable.
I'm just thinking from a xbox one standpoint, some people would wanna play cod over pubg based on graphics alone simply because pubg isnt optimized well.


oh definetly the fact they have neglected to sort the xbox version of pubg has left a sour taste in everyones mouth I guess. Due to this other companies like epic have steam rolled them because there is a market for the game but they just dont care enough to sort it out

This clearly shows that game devs don't care about audience just care about money.

XeCookie_ Like seeing the good sportsmanship!

I don't think that was good sportsmanship, the way I took it was more sarcastic and maybe a little bit irritated lol


Yeah you're probably right to be honest but oh well. I am sure COD will take a lot of players away form them much like Fortnite did.
