The team behind the popular battle royale game PUBG Mobile is working on a new sci-fi video game called Vertical.
The news comes from a report by TechRadar which claims that PUBG Mobile developers are working on a new project. The developers are rumored to be working on a new sci-fi shooter game, but it may not be a battle royale like PUBG Mobile. Further, the report adds that the game may take two to three years to complete.
Tipster PlayerIGN adds to the report with a few screenshots that show key job openings created within the company to work on the project. He adds that it may be based on Unreal Engine 4 and may be a direct sequel to PUBG Mobile. It’s internally codenamed Vertical but may end up being called PUBG 2.

The developers have opened up 14 new job listings for developer positions in the Vertical project. These job openings include a Background Concept Artist, a Video Editing Artist, a Character Concept Artist, a Lighting Artist, and much more.
Some speculation suggests that it may be a campaign-focused single-player game but that is only a rumor, for now, so we recommend taking this information with a grain of salt.
