H1Z1 Releases On PS4 May 22

[Kamikaze Revy]

ok...

Arma 2 is a PC military simulator. Dean Hall made a mod for Arma 2 called "DayZ", which was a zombie apocalypse survival game. Brendan Greene (aka "Playerunknown") modded DayZ into a battle royale game (technically just an Arma 2 mod, but he did use some DayZ assets and mechanics)

then Sony Online Entertainment (SOE, now "Daybreak Game Company") started to make a DayZ clone called H1Z1. they hired Playerunknown to make a battle royale mode for that game. they later split the game into two seperate games for their 'survival' and 'battle royal' modes (and that pissed a lot of people off because they put the original game mode on the back burner to do battle royale. similar to Fortnite)

around this time Playerunknown also ported his original Arma 2 mod to Arma 3

next Bluehole hired Playerunknown to make their own standalone battle royale game. which became PUBG

thing is a lot of people felt H1Z1 was too 'arcady', and PUBG goes more in the direction of the game modes milsim (Arma) roots

So these games are spiritual successors to each other to an extent?
Different games made from the same original game?
I'm just confused as to why so many of pretty much the same exact game are being released and people are going crazy over them.

I do think it's funny that people are getting excited for this game, when it's time already basically came and went on PC. PUBG and Fortnite surpassed it in many ways, and they're already on consoles. but I guess that's just my perspective as a PC player.... that paid $20 for H1Z1 in 2015

I can't find it

I can’t find it in the PS Store?

H1Z1 servers will unlock at 9am PDT, which is 5pm BST, today for the free-to-play battle royale shooter

I mean,it's the same reason PC players get excited for a game that's been on console for a year or more. Because they haven't played it.

Red dead redemption 1 coming to a PC soon

I'm saying that other (arguably better) battle royale games have already made it to console, plus some other AAA battle royale games on the way. I'm just not sure if this game can find a niche
