9 Most Exciting Upcoming Battle Royale Video Games

4. Virtual Battlegrounds

Available right now in early access if you have a VR set other than the PS VR, Virtual Battlegrounds is one of the most shamelessly ripped-off from PUBG versions of battle royale available.

Its hook comes from controlling everything in VR though, and the developers know it. Many of the most enjoyable aspects of VR control have made the jump, and add extra dimension to a standard match of PUBG. You can hide behind furniture and very slowly peek out, reloading weapons means actually pushing the clip into the housing (a supremely intense thing to do during a firefight or when trying to stay hidden), and movement out in the open involves a LOT of looking over your shoulder - not to mention hiding in bushes is literally your entire view consumed by shrubbery.

Simply as "PUBG VR", this is already finding an audience on PC, and until Bluehole develop an official add-on that makes PUBG accessible in VR, is a damn fine alternative.
