Brendan "PLAYERUNKNOWN" Greene, often referred to as the father of the battle royale genre, originally designed the game mode as a mod for the ARMA series of games. After first bringing his game mode to the broader public in H1Z1, he went on to create the multi-award-winning game carrying his name, PLAYERUNKNOWN's Battlegrounds (PUBG).
He now leads PLAYERUNKNOWN Productions, an independent applied research & development studio formed to explore how new technologies can enable large-scale digital experiences. Based in Amsterdam, the team of game developers, software engineers and researchers are experimenting with tools like machine learning and data-driven design to build a new engine that will attempt to push the envelope of what is possible with virtual worlds.
Where did building the Metaverse go wrong? How can we take AI and machine learning from hype to productivity at scale? And how can we empower creativity in connected virtual spaces that people actually want to inhabit? Brendan "PLAYERUNKNOWN" Greene, creator of the global hit game PUBG, shares his vision for the next era of gaming: planet-sized virtual worlds where millions of users play, create, and share infinite new experiences.
