    50m units sold and 400m players? I don't get it. Was the game given away for free at some point to 350m people?

    Makes no sense to me either.

    400 million players, but they only sold 50 million units, yet 87 million play on a daily basis?

    So they gave away more copies of the game than they sold?

    They included PUBG Mobile in those 400 millions, from original announcement:
    "With Xbox and PC sales combined, PUBG has now sold over 50 milion units worldwide. With PUBG Mobile included, there are now over 400 million registered PUBG players worldwide. Over 87 million people play PUBG every day across all our platforms."

    Player numbers are always fake to try and lure in customers. There is no data whatsoever to back up the 400M number.
