When in doubt, Mr Z will load you faster on any disc

RIP to a games industry pioneer and legend, Rebecca Heineman (@burgerbecky.bsky.social) If your unfamiliar, look her up. Her career is like the story of videogames itself.

London has over thousands of these signs all over the city and a sign like this one about Darwin makes you realise how impactful this city has been.

I really wonder how coffee beans and the blockchain technology is combined. Anyone?

Latest interview with @playerunknown.bsky.social and the team at @ppsocials.bsky.social just got published at store.epicgames.com/en-US/news/p.... Prologue will be available in the Epic Game Store when we release in early access!

Bro!

Reality is that communication is hard. Message between people are often vague and far from clear. Even the most obvious message can be missunderstood. Always take that extra time to make things clear when you want say something important. #sundaywisdom

Summer vacation periods closing in and Europeans are planning ahead as always. Especially Scandinavians!

I am waiting for this to happen...

Friday! What I have seen and done so far this year is beyond any other year...

True wisdom!

The 7 min speedrun of our game Prologue gives a good understanding on how large this game is in terms of terrain (its 64km^2 large) - enjoy it here:

Could still be one of the smartest statements on AI so far!

The press is starting to pick up how brutal and hard our game is.

I cant decide if I would buy this kit or if its just a terrible bad idea...

Join our next playtest for Prologue starting Monday 7th of April. Get your Steam key here: go.pp.studio/Discord @ppsocials.bsky.social

The technology in the browser has come a long way since Marc proposed the <IMG> tag a bit more than 32 years ago. I still fondly remember when animated gifs became a thing!

To all my Scandinavian friends!

Word of the day from the enternally wise @nickbuttonbrown.bsky.social (translated to Swedish in case you wonder)

Windows: Error in installing 2025-03 Cumulative Update for Windows 11 Version 24H2 for arm64-based Systems (KB5053598) Me: ...

Reflecting on GDC last week realising that its the first time I did a public appearance as a speaker at GDC. Not sure if it really counts as I was participating in a panel but I got the speaker badge anyhow! #achievementunlocked?

We did a speedrun video of our upcoming game Prologue: Go Wayback! that shows a 90 minute long game session in 7 min. Pretty cool! www.youtube.com/watch?v=OzUn...

Mandatory lunch when visiting the piers in San Francisco.

I dont think thats possible...

I cant make up my mind if I think real life "monsters" looks more real than monsters in fantasy and scifi movies, or, if they look too unrealistic and would have been rejected by the audience if appeared in movies. Thoughts?

The first gameplay trailer for our upcoming game "Prologue: Go Wayback!" just went live at IGN FanFest. Its starting to look good! www.youtube.com/watch?v=KI6H... @ppsocials.bsky.social

In a study comparing Nobel price winners during 1901-2005 with non-winning scientists showed that practicing different levels of crafting or art creation dramatically increased the chances of winning. I guess there are similarities with executives in the game industry. "Originals" is a great book!

Lots of hype in press and media for our ucpoming game Prologue! I like this one specifically kotaku.com/pubg-2-prolo... @ppsocials.bsky.social @playerunknown.net

Saturday is a good day for Swedes to consider the correlation between number of Nobel Laureates and Chocolate consumption...

Midnight Walk launching in May! Get ready for a spectacular and totally unique journey in this handcrafted world of clay! www.youtube.com/watch?v=l-A5...

I have once in my life asked a celebrity to take a selfie with me and am still so happy I did that. I met J.J Abrams at a Tencent event in 2017 and had to talk to him, and convince him to take a photo with me. "Of course!" he said.

This is true!

I have done over 150 interviews for my book "UP DOWN UP" and met some seriously experienced people. While in London, I met two of the very most experienced persons you could possible imagine: Jim Ryan, former CEO at Playstation and Ian Livingstone, founder of Games Workshop! It was a good week! ❤️

Random person: "Hows the sales of your book outside of Amazon?" Me: "..."

On the train towards London. Why do I get the feeling that the train will explode at London Bridge? It's a bit stwange to me that trains terminate... If this was a Marvel or Die Hard movie, the train would definitely explode when it arrived!

Two weeks into the year I find myself saying "I have my first candidate on GOTY": store.steampowered.com/app/3437250/... - and I havent even played the game yet! I am so hoping they honor the legacy of this amazing game!

Scott Davidsson, the creative director at @ppsocials.bsky.social blogs about the creative process when creating our upcoming game Prologue: Go Wayback! Read about it here: playerunknownproductions.net/news/designi... Its shaping up to become a gorgeously looking game as well!

I will use this one as my new best friend to get me out walking more going forward!

Sunday morning in bed, while reading BE 2.0, I was surprised to discover that Jim Collins had divided the evolution of companies into 4 phases - exactly the structure I have for my own book: Startup, Growth, Maturity and Decline. I had no idea! I am now extra happy about how I wrote my own book. 😀

Happy holidays from PLAYERUNKNOWNs Production! Read our end of the year blog reflecting on PREFACE release and PROLOGUE announcement. playerunknownproductions.net/news/happy-h... @ppsocials.bsky.social

@ramiismail.com and Shirley came and played board games with us at @ppsocials.bsky.social the other day, and discussed at length the game design and drama of our upcoming game Prologue. Lots of fun, thanks for coming by!

The audio version of "UP DOWN UP" narrated by the excellent @nickbuttonbrown.bsky.social also contains so called "commentary tracks" with completely new content of about 3h and 30min, specifically made for the audiobook, with 26 voices including @milessi.bsky.social and @timoflegend.bsky.social ❤️

The AUDIOBOOK of my book UP DOWN UP is now LIVE on Audible (Amazon) since yesterday! Its narrated by the excellent and brilliant @nickbuttonbrown.bsky.social. The book is 7h long + 3h of completely new material just for the audio version! Spread the word! ❤️

At @ppsocials.bsky.social we created a 6 min long video to explain the journey of the studio. This company is not trying to do the usual ordinary things. The ambition @playerunknown.net is aiming for is the biggest there is, but we start small! Enjoy the video here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=XvK-...

We just announced TWO projects from @ppsocials.bsky.social PROLOGUE announced. A survival game set in a large wilderness coming to Early Access Q2 2025. Wishlist on Steam: steam.pp.studio/Prologue PREFACE tech demo is available immediately for free! Download on Steam: steam.pp.studio/Preface

In a couple of hours we will be showing some cool stuff at the PC Gamer Show! @pcgamer.com and tomorrow we will be talking (and playing) these cool things at Discord! @ppsocials.bsky.social @playerunknown.net

@arneanka1983.bsky.social Tack! Love this one! So many fun childhood memories from your strips. Did you ever do any in English?

Happy to share that the Korean version of my book is progressing well! Had the opportunity to meet with @lea1003.bsky.social in Helsinki, that travelled all the way from Korea for Slush, and gave her a copy of the book in person. I am excited about this! Also attached a draft of the Korean cover.

We will be showing stuff from our game(s) in development on Friday next week. Come and have a look!

Luxury is to wake up Saturday morning and play the latest version of our game in development. With a coffee or two of course. @ppsocials.bsky.social
