PvP, also known as Player vs Player, was a longrunning video game webcomic, written and drawn by Scott Kurtz. It was launched on May 4, 1998. The webcomic follows the events at a fictional video game magazine company, featuring many running gags and references with a focus on nerd culture. Dylan Meconis was added as a co-writer in 2013.[2]

By 2005, PvP was receiving around 100,000 unique visitors per day,[3] and the webcomic has seen various print releases. On February 1, 2007, it became the subject of its own animated series.

In 2020, the strip was rebooted, jumping forward in time 15 years,[4] though it later reverted to the original time period.[5]

On 2022-02-22, Kurtz announced on his blog that he was temporarily dialing back his daily work on PvP to concentrate on an upcoming book series based on Table |Titans.[6]

There have been no new comics since 2022-09-16, when Kurtz locked all comics predating 2021 to Patreon subscribers only.[7] On 2024-10-24, Kurtz removed the Patreon login requirements for reading the PvP and Table Titans archives.[8]
