With Unknown Player , Jacques Petitjean pays homage to the world of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG) while injecting his own artistic sensibility. This work, inspired by the famous battle royale, revisits the iconic survivor with a military helmet with a touch of derision and admiration.

The character, depicted from behind, wears his iconic helmet, a frying pan on his shoulder and a backpack, ready for battle. The frying pan, which has become a cult symbol of the game, adds a humorous note to the image, while embodying the improvisation and resilience needed to survive in this merciless universe. A small yellow crown above his head, drawn with an almost childlike lightness, reinforces this idea of ​​ironic triumph, symbolizing both the king of the battlefields and the playful aspect of the game.

Jacques Petitjean captures the essence of PUBG here: constant tension mixed with absurd and memorable moments. The graphic style, precise but refined, highlights the essential details without overloading the composition. The white background amplifies the contrast and refocuses attention on the character, while leaving the scene open to the viewer's imagination.

Unknown Player is much more than a simple nod to a cult video game. It is a celebration of gaming culture and its emotional impact, where each game can become a unique adventure. With this work, Petitjean transcends the simple reference to offer a vision of the PUBG universe that is at once fun, nostalgic and resolutely artistic. A must-have piece for fans of video games and contemporary art.

Jacques Petitjean

Jacques Petitjean is an illustrator for whom drawing is a way of anchoring the imagination in reality—or perhaps the other way around. At the crossroads of comics, video games, and geek culture, he develops a universe as expressive as it is precise, full of dark humor, disillusioned tenderness, and revisited pop homages. A 2024 Inktober winner, he stands out for his incisive graphic style: clean lines, full colors, characters both familiar and offbeat. His works capture a frozen moment—often funny, sometimes melancholic, always impactful. Alongside his personal work, Jacques Petitjean collaborates on projects such as the video game Noara, where he puts his talent at the service of the narrative and visual universe. Whether it illustrates an absurd scene, a gaming icon, or a character tired of everything, it shows what geek culture has that is most human: its imagination, its derision, and this desire to continue dreaming in style.
