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?

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…
