The game is a Battle Royale styled mod which some of you may know. The guy this game was named after (PlayerUnknown) created the Battle Royale mods for the ArmA series and also for H1Z1. He then formed his own team/got hired by a studio and created this game with input from the community.
Basically everyone starts with nothing and you have to gear yourself up by looting and staying within the "safe" zone. Think Hunger Games.
There is solo, duo and squad modes with more being planned as time goes on. Remember its in EARLY ACCESS - downside is it may be unoptimized and buggy but plus side is its about R300 - a lot cheaper than most games these days.
I tried the game on my rig and it ran horrendously, so I requested a Steam refund - which I got. There are big strides being made with optimization and a lot of people are watching very closely.
In fact, almost every Youtube content creator and Twitch streamer is currently playing this game (LevelCap, XFactor, Jackfrags, Sacriel, Lirik, Cohh and more)
Sorry about the long post, but here is a video showing off some gameplay:

This video illustrates a few things exceptionally well:
- How fun/intense the game is.
- How good watching streamers on Twitch is.
- How music choice can make all the difference in a vid.
I will be keeping a very close eye on this game.
