PUBG creator Greene announces new IP Prologue

PUBG creator Greene announces new IP Prologue

The creator of Playerunknown's Battlegrounds, Brendan "Playerunknown" Greene (pictured), has revealed a brand new IP.

Announced last night at The Game Awards, the project is simply called Prologue and is Greene's first work since he moved away from working on the battle royale behemoth.

The title is being developed by PUBG Corp's Amsterdam-based Special Projects team.

"Our studio was founded with the goal of exploring, experimenting, and creating new technologies and gameplay experiences,” said Greene.

“With Prologue, we are taking our first steps toward building new technologies and interactions that will help develop my ideas into reality.

“I have been given a once in a lifetime chance to deliver something new on a global stage. Being given a platform to build a brand-new experience outside of the battle royale genre is an amazing gift, and one I don’t want to squander. Prologue is an exploration into new technologies and gameplay. Our aim with this game is to give players unique and memorable experiences, each and every time they play.”
