The present case report presents the most extreme negative aspects of gaming, namely PUBG-related suicide during the coronavirus disease-2019 pandemic in Pakistan.
Three suicide cases of extreme gamers occurred within a few days of each other in Lahore, Pakistan. All three were young males aged 16-20 years and their suicides appear to be related to PUBG addiction. It is likely that all three individuals experienced other predisposing factors relating to psychological instability.
For vulnerable groups such as adolescents and emerging adults who have psychological predispositions and/or other comorbidities, engrossing videogames which take up many hours a day such as PUBG may pose a risk which in the most extreme cases may be fatal.
本病例报告呈现了游戏最极端的负面方面，即在 2019 冠状病毒病疫情期间巴基斯坦与 PUBG 相关的自杀事件。
在巴基斯坦拉合尔，连续几天发生了三起极端游戏玩家自杀事件。这三个人都是 16 到 20 岁的年轻男性，他们的自杀似乎与 PUBG 成瘾有关。很可能这三个人都经历了与心理不稳定有关的其他潜在因素。
对于青少年和刚成年的易受影响群体，每天投入大量时间玩像 PUBG 这样的引人入胜的视频游戏可能存在风险，在最极端的情况下可能是致命的。对于那些有心理倾向和/或其他合并症的易受影响群体，例如青少年和刚成年的人，每天投入大量时间玩像 PUBG 这样引人入胜的视频游戏可能存在风险，在最极端的情况下可能是致命的。
