When Microsoft added Gears of War 4 Xbox One/PC cross-play, there wasn’t a noticeable difference in game stats between keyboard and controller users. There’s still some debate about how much of an edge keyboard players actually have, though. Built with Unreal Engine 4, PUBG MOBILE focuses on visual quality, maps, shooting experience, and other aspects, providing an all. Last year, Blizzard responded to complaints about keyboard players in Overwatch by taking an official stance against console players using them. PUBG MOBILE is a Battle Royale mobile game created independently by Lightspeed & Quantum Studios of Tencent Games, officially licensed by PLAYERUNKNOWN’S BATTLEGROUNDS. PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds isn’t the only game to be hit with the keyboard controversy. He said that instead of disabling keyboard support, Microsoft would leave the decision up to developers to implement APIs that detect and disable third-party keyboards.

Xbox vice president Mike Ybarra a ddressed the issue in February.

This has, of course, created some balance issues in multiplayer games. And with a little ingenuity, it’s possible to play many games with a PC setup. Still, the Xbox One, which has inched closer to a Windows PC operating system over the years, can easily recognize a keyboard. Not to mention it’s easier to manage your inventory in PUBG with a keyboard.Īlthough Microsoft has promised to bring official keyboard support to Xbox One for years, it hasn’t happened. Since aiming with a mouse is generally viewed as the most precise shooting method, this understandably puts controller players at a disadvantage. Upon PUBG‘s arrival on Xbox One in December, users quickly discovered that the game could be controlled on Xbox One with a third-party keyboard. It’s unclear when the change will go into effect, but RoboDanjal relayed the identical message on the PUBG forum back in February. The dev team reportedly looked into the use of third-party devices in PUBG for months before coming to a decision on the matter. Replying to a frustrated console player, Dan “RoboDanjal” said, “Although usage of these devices is statistically very low, fair gameplay is core to our experience, and we will be communicating our plan to curb the use of these devices soon.” The change, which can be seen as an attempt to level the playing field, was announced by PUBG‘s community coordinator on Twitter (via IGN).
