"Battlegrounds" is a popular genre of multiplayer video games where players compete against each other in a large, open environment. The objective is to be the last player or team standing by eliminating opponents while avoiding being eliminated oneself. Players often start with minimal equipment and must scavenge for weapons, armor, and supplies throughout the map. These games typically feature a shrinking play area, which forces players into closer proximity and increases the intensity of encounters. Popular titles in this genre include PUBG, Fortnite, and Apex Legends, each offering unique gameplay mechanics and styles to engage players.
