PUBG Sues Fortnite

“PUBG,” a multi-player, “battle royale”-style online video game, is suing “Fortnite Battle Royale,” for copyright infringement. PUBG is built by an engine (engine: software to develop the game) that Epic Games created called, “Unreal Engine,” which was developed back in 1998.  “Fornite Battle Royale” also uses this software engine, as do many video games. 

Fortnite and PUBG came out within four months of each other– PUBG coming out first. 

In my opinion, I think PUBG is just mad that Fortnite is doing better then their game by beating the world record of players playing at once by 0.1 million.

    things to note-
    -unreal engine 4 is available for anyone to license and develop games with, making PUBG’s use of it irrelevant
    -“Fortnite” is actually a coop survival game, “Fortnite Battle Royale” came out six months after PUBG, and it would have been very easy to make in that short time given that the entire base game already existed
    -Both games are actually pretty lame
