Alpha testing of PUBG: Black Budget has begun

The development of the extraction shooter PUBG: Black Budget from publisher Krafton is getting closer to the finish line. Although the game's release date has still not been announced, alpha testing has already begun, in which anyone can participate. To do this, it is enough to be among the invited or to independently send a request through third-party platforms. At the same time, the authors of the shooter report that users will not have to sign an NDA — any gameplay features can be freely discussed on social networks, attaching screenshots and video recordings.

Invitation distribution takes place through Steam and its associated user email. If someone still didn't receive such a letter, you can get a key through Twitch and Chzzk Drops by linking your platform to Krafton ID in advance. PC owners residing in America, Europe, and Asia, including CIS countries, are participating in the testing, and the alpha version client supports Russian among other languages. Among the minimum system requirements are Windows 10 or 11, 16 GB of RAM, 30 GB of free disk space, and video cards at the level of NVIDIA RTX 2060. No additional forms need to be filled out except for account data — the test was decided to be conducted without NDA.

We remind you that the subtitle Black Budget was received by a PUBG spin-off, the action of which unfolds in the same universe. Gamers need to land on an island where scientific experiments were once conducted, and collect as many artifacts as possible in laboratories, then leave the map with the loot. But this is not so easy to do, since you are opposed by characters controlled by other players, and natural anomalies complicate the situation on the island itself. Only one battle display mode — first-person was made available in the test.
