Gamers from around the world have made PUBG (a.k.a. PlayerUnderground's Battlegrounds) one of the most popular games on the PC, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and on multiple mobile device platforms.

This SpringerBrief deals with a class of discrete-time zero-sum Markov games with Borel state and action spaces, and possibly unbounded payoffs, under discounted and average criteria, whose state process evolves according to a stochastic difference equation. The corresponding disturbance process is an observable sequence of independent and identically distributed random variables with unknown distribution for both players. Unlike the standard case, the game is played over an infinite horizon evolving as follows.
