The goal once you land: Survive.

That's the basic premise of "PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds," the biggest game of 2017: Be the last person standing of 100 in a massive fight to the death. With such a thrilling, Hunger Games-esque premise, it's no surprise that the game has been such a breakaway hit - it's the most-played game on the world's largest game service, Steam.
"PUBG" is only available on PC at the moment, but it's also on the cusp of launching on Xbox One (the game arrives December 12). Though "PUBG" has only featured the one main map since its soft launch back in March, a second map is about to be added - and we just got our first real look at it! Here's what we know about "Miramar," the second playable area in 2017's biggest game:
