Krafton Inc, developers of the PUBG battle royale game, announced a business agreement with Solana Labs in order to support the design and marketing of crypto games and services.
By this partnership, Solana and Krafton will cooperate in the creation of blockchain-based games and services while also cooperating in marketing, design, and investment opportunities.
We’re excited by KRAFTON’s commitment to build the future of gaming on Solana. KRAFTON is an established innovator in the games industry and we are excited to be part of their next level up. We are seeing gamers increasingly seek out on-chain games and gaming companies who respond quickly to this demand will set themselves up well for ongoing success.
Johnny Lee, Head of Games Business Development at Solana Labs
Krafton will continuously accelerate and focus on blockchain-based opportunities. PUBG is one of the most popular games and the cooperation could be a break-through for blockchain gaming adoption.
Nevertheless, it’s a vote of confidence in the space with all the skepticism going around in the game development space for play-to-earn economies and NFTs integration.
