Brendan Greene sheds light on PUBG Corp.'s Prologue

Last week PUBG Corp. - which is famous of course for PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds - revealed a new project called Prologue, and now PlayerUnknown himself has shared some new information about the project with Forbes.

Brendan Greene is his real name, and he's actually working with PlayerUnknown Productions, clarifying that Prologue is "the first step in the journey for me. We set up the studio, and founded it with the goal of experimenting with new technology. Now we're taking that first step towards building new technologies, and Prologue is the first step into the new world for us. I wanted the chance to deliver something new on a global scale."

"I've got some pretty big dreams about what I want to achieve, that I'm not quite ready to achieve. It will require some new tech."

"With a lot of other creators, they've been put in a box", Greene adds. "I've been told go and create, and we'll support you."

"It's so much responsibility, I really don't want to mess this up. But these opportunities don't come along very often, you don't get a chance to launch a global IP every day. "

The studio he's in charge of is made up of 25 people right now, but Greene hopes to expand this in time. Right now it's comprised of veteran developers, but also researchers like a nuclear physicist, as well as another individual with a double doctorate in systems management and AI.

The team is still keeping their cards close to the chest when it comes to the technology they're using, but they've already discussed what a PlayerUnknown game had to be, including brutality and unforgiving nature.

"One of my dreams is to create worlds at scale," says Greene. "Hundreds of kilometers by hundreds kilometers, with thousands of people, and these are hugely difficult problems to solve."

"I'm doing this to share my experiences with people and give them cool gameplay experiences. With PUBG I have all these people coming up to me and telling me their stories, and it inspires me to affect people in that way. It's humbling that I can do that, and given the chance to do that again."

For now we know very little about the specifics of Prologue, but PUBG Corp. is still going strong with PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds on consoles, PC, and mobile, so this is just one part of their future strategy.
