PUBG Studios Is Making an Extraction Shooter

This extraction shooter spinoff is planned for release next year.

I’ve talked about a bunch relating to shooter games in the past. You can find those linked at the end here. But today, I’m diving into the scoop about a new shooter game from PUBG Studios.

PUBG: Battlegrounds has laid the foundation for a new direction! Krafton (PUBG’s parent company) just dropped some exciting news in their latest financial report: PUBG Studios is brewing up “Project Black Budget,” which is an extraction shooter set to hit the gaming scene in the latter half of 2024.

Now, these days, extraction shooters are all the rage. Imagine this: PvPvE showdowns on sandbox maps where players can bail out whenever they fancy. It’s a hot trend, with games like Escape From Tarkov and Hunt: Showdown leading the pack. Even Call of Duty’s Warzone jumped on the bandwagon with its beloved DMZ mode.

You’d think PUBG’s next move would be another battle royale gig, right? I mean, that’s what I’d have bet on not long ago. Everyone was trying to cash in on that crazy rush for high-player-count action after H1Z1: King of the Kill and the sudden fame of PlayerUnknown’s game back in 2017.

But most of those ventures went kaput. Now, with PUBG, Fortnite, Apex Legends, and Warzone reigning supreme, it feels like the battle royale fever has maxed out. Meanwhile, extraction shooters are slowly but surely gaining steam.

Krafton’s spinoff marks the second big extraction shooter announcement this year. Bungie’s revamping Marathon is also on the radar, and let’s not forget about Arc Raiders by Embark Studios — who are also prepping for The Finals release.

Final Words

It’s a wild ride in the world of PvPvE shooters, but I can’t help but wonder if this niche subgenre can handle the influx of big games all at once.

Project Black Budget might just be the litmus test to see if lightning can strike twice.
