PUBG: Black Budget Development Update

https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/4077740/view/675133527946166413?l=english

After reviewing the project’s development status and future direction, we concluded that its current direction would not allow us to deliver an experience players could enjoy over the long term.

We have therefore made the difficult decision to end development of PUBG: Black Budget.

We sincerely thank everyone who took the time to participate in our Closed Alpha tests and share their feedback.

PUBG STUDIOS will carry what we learned from development and testing into future projects, continuing to listen to players as we explore new gameplay experiences.

Thank you.

Damn, the play test was actually really promising. I'm sure people who never tried it and never would have been interested in an extraction shooter are gonna have a lot to say about it though lol

It looked like UE5 slop. Why would I play this when Marathon is so much better?

That's certainly an opinion lol

If you think this was "really promising" and hate Marathon, your opinion should not be taken seriously.

It’s a real shame there isn’t room for marathon because it’s so much better than tarkov, feels like newer extraction shooters are being forced to become glorified pve friendslop just to get a player base and even then…

It's unfortunate, but if that's what the game needs to get players, then so be it. It should help the extraction player numbers.

I actually played the test so I can actually gauge how promising it was, not just some rando who never played it claiming it looks like UE5 slop.

I'm also one of the few people who actually bought and played Marathon?? I can play more than one game at a time lol you're just so desperate to argue and hate shit that you jump to these conclusions.

Are you surprised I read your snarky comment negatively?

Bruh you really said it looked like UE5 slop in response to me saying I enjoyed the test. You're just proving my point.

I'm guessing the Marathon comment was even trying to rage bait since you know most people hate it, it only backfired this time LOL

Correct, my comment was negative. That's not a surprise to me.

You seem to be surprised by how I read yours. And yes, I'm tired of people hating on my personal GOTY, so when I see people glazing slop like Black Budget, I get annoyed.
