Why is the Battle Royale game PUBG (Player Unknown's Battlegrounds), and its imitators, like Fortnite, so popular?

A big reason is that it is endlessly replayable, thanks to emergent gameplay that gives the player random new challenges every time they play.

Recently, I had the pleasure of spending time with PUBG creator Brendan Greene AKA Player Unknown. Listen in & find out how PUBG came to life - & grew into a massive worldwide hit.
