PUBG or PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds Steam keys are one of the most in demand items for PC gamers right now. It's already sold twenty million copies since launching in March 2017 and that number swelled even further with Xbox One release. As for PC gamers though, contrary to popular belief, you don't have to buy all your Steam games direct from the Steam store. 

There are discounts and bargains to be had elsewhere too, and it doesn't matter where you are in the world, we'll look through reliable retailers to bring you the lowest possible price for your new PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds key. We've also found a selection of the best PUBG Xbox One deals too.

But, what is PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds?

PlayerUnknown's Battlgrounds, came out of nowhere earlier in 2017 and has been a fixture in Steam's chart ever since. 

It's what's known as a last-man-standing shooter set on a huge 8x8KM island. Think of it as a deathmatch where everyone only gets one life - no respawns. Players must search for weapons scattered around the map, or steal them from defeated players all while desperately trying to avoid getting spotted themselves. If you've watched Battle Royale, you're on the right track, albeit with more wide open spaces and fewer murderous high schoolers.

This survival shooter is currently has finally finished its Early Access stage and is now a fully-released game. That being said, new content is constantly being developed for it.

Is PUBG coming to PS4 and Xbox One?

Microsoft has snagged PlayerUnknown's Battlgrounds as an exclusive and it's out now. However, Bluepoint hasn't ruled out a PS4 release in the future, but have "nothing further to announce at this time." 

To us, that sounds like a timed-exclusive if ever there was one. Like Rise of the Tomb Raider, we expect PS4 owners won't have to wait any longer than a year. For now though, PC and Xbox One is the way to go.
