Netflix and Hollywood are interested in the game PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds

It seems that Hollywood and Netflix have been interested in bringing PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds to the audiovisual market, although at the moment it is a not very specific and long-term project.

The game of 2017, despite whoever it may be, has been PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, which has sold copies like hotcakes on PC, has passed three million players on Steam and in just 72 after its arrival on Xbox One, they have been sold more than a million copies. It seems that nobody wants to be left without their egg of the goose that lays the golden eggs and is that in a statement made by CH Kim, head of PUBG Corp, a subsidiary of Bluehole, they would have already received the interest of Netflix and Hollywood in the game and its battle royale style.

CH Kim's statements about the game to the medium InvenGlobal, speaks of the interest of the giants of audiovisual content production, but we must be cautious, because at the moment everything is a house of cards: 'I would love to see PUBG as the germ of an entire multimedia franchise. We want to participate in various industries such as eSports, cinema, series, animation, etc. What's more, we've had a couple of loving calls from developers in Hollywood and Netflix. '

We do not know if in the end we will see a movie or a series about the game or that is based on the main theme of the game, but at least it is a very attractive idea and that it would take the game to a new level. It is not the first time that the cinema is interested in the world of video games, it is only necessary to see the Tomb Raider saga, for example, which has its origin in the popular video game. This tactic of bringing games to the big screen will become more frequent, especially thanks to eSports, which are becoming a trend.
