Microsoft is reportedly looking to extend its PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds deal, in an attempt to stay tied to the Xbox One family.
PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds has been the surprise hit of 2017, racking up over 10 million sales and counting since its March debut on Steam's Early Access program. While a simple concept, the "Battle Royale" shooter has garnered a passionate following during its brief time on the market and current sits among the most played games on PC.
Back in June at E3 2017, Microsoft announced a partnership with the game's developer, Bluehole, which would see PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds hitting Xbox One ahead of other consoles. Since, Microsoft Studios has stepped onboard as the publisher on the platform, with a seemingly close relationship between the two firms in preparing a console debut. Now, according to a new report from Bloomberg, Microsoft and Bluehole are in talks to extend this exclusivity agreement, preventing expansions to further platforms over a longer period.
