Prologue: Go Wayback becomes free after running out of funds

Brendan Greene, creator of PUBG, has stopped development of Prologue: Go Wayback due to lack of funding. Its studio is restructuring and the survival game will become free. Those who have already purchased it could receive refunds, although the details are not yet clear. A decision that changes the course of the project. 🎮

Technical restructuring: from the paid model to the free model 🔧

The move to free involves a review of the business model and the server. Greene indicated that the game will continue to receive updates, but with a reduced team. Lack of funds forced technical stability to be prioritized over new features. Developers are now focusing on optimizing the core experience to retain players without generating direct revenue through sales.

PUBG creator discovers that making games also costs money 💸

Who would have thought it: the man who popularized battle royale is now faced with the harsh reality that open world dreams don’t pay for themselves. Going from selling parachute skins to financing a hiking simulator turned out to be a bigger leap than expected. At least those who bought the game will have more than a souvenir: a possible refund.
