Why does PUBG require controller?!?!

Stadia, could you please add the Keyboard and mouse option back? I spent $30 on this game, and now I can't use the ONLY THING I HAVE for THE ONLY GAME I PLAY!!!

@RighteousKill13 I think they removed the m/kb option since they want to keep even playing ground, since they'll have cross play with consoles (which don't support m/kb). You can read the announcement below

If this prevents you to play the game, you can request for a refund if you haven't played more than two hours and 14 days since you purchased. For more detail you can take a look at the link below

Hi @RighteousKill13,

The controller only was PUBG's idea because of low player base using keyboard and mouse. With controller you have cross play with other consoles which means more human players vs bot players. It doesn't mean you guaranteed 100% human players but you will have more players vs with keyboard and mouse.

When pubg first launched on Stadia only controller had cross play. Keyboard and mouse was stadia players only.
