Brendan 'PlayerUnknown' Greene splits from Krafton, forms new studio to continue working on new IP

Brendan Greene – perhaps better known by his “PlayerUnknown” moniker – is leaving Krafton Game Union to form PlayerUnknown Productions where he will continue working on other projects away from the famous battle royale.

Greene announced Krafton will hold a minority stake in his new Amsterdam-based studio.

Thanks to the successes of PUBG, Krafton is valued at an eye-watering $16.5 billion.
