Or better. Really, it depends on how much you enjoy being stressed out. >Today, the game's development team gave players a peek at the PUBG 2018 road map -- which includes a new, smaller map specifically designed to create more intense, faster paced battle royale experience. Basically, the game will still be a deathmatch between 100 players, each desperate to survive, but now that mass of players will be fighting it out in an arena about half the size of the default map: an small island with just 4 square kilometers of space. There's also at least one more large, 8x8 map on the way, too.
