Brendan Greene (born 29 March 1976), better known as PlayerUnknown, is an Irish video game developer. He is best known for his work on battle royale video game PUBG: Battlegrounds. He left active development on the game to form PUBG Special Projects and PlayerUnknown Productions in March 2019.

== Career == In 2013, Greene was living in Brazil as an event photographer and freelance website designer. While saving up money to buy a plane ticket back to Ireland, he found himself playing video games, particularly the open world survival DayZ mod for Arma 2. He modded the game himself, working under the pseudonym "PlayerUnknown". After experimenting with last-man-standing gameplay, later that year he released a mod called DayZ: Battle Royale, named after the 2000 Japanese action film Battle Royale.
