PUBG is reportedly getting new content from an abandoned sequel

June 22, 2021 Krafton has confirmed the existence of Project Titan, but no other additional information is available at this time.
There's a whiff of change in the air for PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds. From Krafton's planned return to PUBG roots with a 8x8 map and new innovations like the second-chance mechanic, PUBG could well be reborn later this year.
While the flurry of game-changing updates to PUBG are nothing to worry about, many are confused as to why Krafton is deciding to roll them out now. Former PUBG Corp CEO, Kim Chang-hang, told Bloomberg in January that a new "PUBG-related PC and console game" was slated for release in 2022 - so why all the recent innovation to the original PUBG?
Prominent PUBG leaker, 'PlayerIGN', appears to have the answer, telling The Loadout exclusively that the sequel, known as Project RE:BORN, had some development issues, leaving it dead in the water. As a result, the game has been abandoned, but some of its major features are being pumped into PUBG.
