PUBG Creator's Next Game Is Very Different But Even More Ambitious
Briefly

Brendan Greene, known as PlayerUnknown, is working on a new survival game, Prologue: Go Wayback!, intending to redefine online interaction rather than create a sequel to PUBG. He emphasizes the misunderstood scale of his ambitions as he aspires to develop a metaverse different from current trends. 2022 was a pivotal year for metaverse discussion, marked by skepticism after major tech investments in virtual reality. Unlike companies like Meta, Greene's PlayerUnknown Productions aims for a thoughtful launch of a first-person simulation without the pressures of investors.
"The scale, I think, of what we're doing is kind of misunderstood. People aren't seeing what it enables." Brendan Greene on his ambition with Prologue: Go Wayback!
"I want to build a metaverse because I don't think anyone else is.'" Greene discussing his vision compared to other tech giants.
"This year likely determines whether this entire effort will go down as the work of visionaries or a legendary misadventure," Meta CTO Andrew Bosworth on the tech buzz surrounding metaverses.
Prologue 's ambition is much more humble, at least initially, and not subject to the flighty whims of Wall Street investors." Commentary on Greene's approach versus larger corporations.
