On top of the new scenery, terrain, and building styles, Erangel has been vitally reworked on the inside, too, a much more appealing prospect for veteran PUBG players. The developer has made fully-researched changes to loot, from drop rates to design, to make sure the map plays out in a more modern way. PUBG Corp is also tinkering with how the Blue Zone constricts players in an effort to better reflect what the company has described as " emerging playstyles and tactics ," though essentially that just refers to the game's competitive meta.

Greene would later add that he's also " done the killing thing ," which seems to indicate that the creator is also exploring games with a much less violent focus than the title that he made his name off of.

PUBG was once the apple of the eye of battle royale players everywhere, but has recently fallen on hard times as more competitors crop up with innovative additions to the formula that PUBG innovated. Still, the game is one of the first of its kind, and kickstarted a genre that has now come to completely dominate the gaming industry. While PUBG appears to be heading in the wrong direction of late, it's difficult to dispute that Greene has a keen eye for what would catch the interest of gamers, and it's not like PUBG is going anywhere - it's just unlikely to pose much of a threat to Fortnite or the insurgent Apex Legends at this po

In an interview conducted with GamesIndustry.biz , Greene was asked about his current position within the company and what his stance was moving forward with games like PUBG and the battle royale genre as a whole.
