PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds will officially arrive in China, but with some minor modifications

Finally PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds will arrive in China thanks to Tencent, but with some modifications, to 'conform to the traditional culture and moral standards of the country.'

Although the arrival of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds on the market has meant breaking all possible records and the data is brutal, there are some problems, especially in China, where the authorities do not look favorably on the game. It is not a novelty, since there are prohibited games in the country, which is characterized by being little open. Tencent, the Chinese giant that has the League of Legends license, will officially introduce it in the country, although fans in this country have been enjoying the game for a long time, undercover, of course.

There were significant doubts about the arrival of this game to the Asian giant, especially after the country's government itself said that the title developed by Bluehole "did not agree with socialist ideology." Losing such a large and active community of players was a serious problem, but in the end the studio has implemented some modifications in the Chinese edition of PUBG, so that it can be distributed in the country, although these modifications have not been revealed, only it has been commented that 'some adjustments will be made to conform to the traditional culture and moral standards of the country.'

Bluehole had no choice but to adapt to introduce its game in the country that has the largest community of players, with no less than 44% of the quota of players. Tencent will also have exclusivity in the country, so the servers used to play in China will be owned by this company, something that can bring stability to the problematic Chinese servers that used to crash. Bluehole wanted to make it clear that the modification will be "something culturally positive, especially for underage users."
