PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds gets servers for first person perspective

PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds is getting special servers where players can only use the first-person perspective. That makes the game more difficult, because players can no longer operate the camera to look over walls.

Brendan Greene, creator of the game, reports also on Twitter that the first person mode is coming to European and US servers first for the solo and duo game modes. Then it will be expanded to other regions. For now, the first-person functionality is not available for squads. Players have the option to choose servers with the first person gameplay, but are not forced to do so.

At the moment it is possible to switch between first and third person in PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds. In the third-person perspective, the camera can be controlled so that, for example, you can look around and over walls, without the player having to reveal his position. This advantage disappears with the new servers.

The new servers without the ability to switch to the third-person perspective will be accessible after the next monthly update is released. This update is likely to be available in the coming weeks.
