Playerunknown's Battlegrounds surpasses 3 million simultaneous players on Steam

Playerunknown's Battlegrounds closes the year with more than 3.1 million simultaneous players on Steam and has achieved numbers almost impossible for other video games, such as selling 1 million copies for the Xbox One.

Playerunknown's Battlegrounds closes the year as best he knows how, making history and the game has broken all existing records on Steam for sales and simultaneous players, for a 'finished' game and for Early Access titles. The game, which has been sold at the rate of about a million copies weekly, has registered 3.1 million simultaneous players, according to Steam. No, it is not a joke and it is certainly the expected data, since the Christmas holidays and the arrival of version 1.0 for PC of the game have been joined, in addition to its arrival on the Xbox One.

It is not the united data that we have of the game. BattlEye has announced on its Twitter account that 1.5 million cheaters have been expelled, who used different tricks in the game and approximately 170.000 users are expelled. In the first three months of the game, about 25.000 cheats were expelled, after four months the expelled cheats were 322.000 and in the last three months about 1.2 million players have been expelled, due to the popularity of the game in China, especially .

Additionally, it should be noted that more than 1 million copies have been sold in just 48 hours, upon arrival on Xbox One, where it is in early access, since the only 'definitive' version is the PC version. A few days ago, they also commented that the game at the moment is not even close to being released for the PlayStation 4, since it does not have an early access system, as if they have the Microsoft console and the Valve platform. Without a doubt, it has become the game of the year and at the moment, the most played simultaneously in history.
