There's strength in numbers, and that's especially apparent in PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds . When playing in squad, especially with trusted teammates, one's chances of winning in the game drastically improve. Players in squads have to worry far less about stealth, and can rush loot-heavy areas to acquire the best stuff without having to fear too much about being blasted away by enemy play


Although Nintendo was on the defensive over Donkey Kong , the company has been very diligent when it comes to its own intellectual property over the years, and has not been shy of taking people to court.

The story follows a team of Navy SEALs on a rescue mission - one that quickly evolves into a multifaceted, globe-trotting operation to stop Islamic extremists from infiltrating U.S. borders and enacting a string of devastating terrorist attacks in a number of America's most populated cities.
