Production Details

PUBG features 100 players fighting for survival, which provides creators plenty of room to build a narrative around the premise.
The game hints at a bloodsport tournament designed to entertain elites, suggesting a potential tone similar to other survival thrillers.

This project adds to Netflix's growing slate of video game adaptations, which includes upcoming projects based on Assassin's Creed and Gears of War.
