About Krafton's projects

Krafton is a relatively new company from South Korean, with their only successful title being PUBG and its mobile version. However, they are highly successful games, and the revenue generated by them is more than enough to fund other projects.

Pubg New State
PUBG New State is PUBG Mobile's sequel, set 30 years after the event of the first game.

They are working on a number of titles, most of them are PUBG-related, but there are also other spin-offs in the works, such as The Callisto Protocol, PUBG Cowboy, and Korean Witcher.

Callisto Protocol: Horror PUBG in Space?

The Callisto Protocol is a third-person survival horror game, with a release date scheduled in 2022. It is currently developed by a subsidiary of Krafton, Striking Distance Studios. The Callisto Protocol’s story takes set in the year 2320, which is around 300 years after the events of PUBG.

The story takes place on an off-world colony named Black Iron, which is stationed on Callisto, one of Jupiter’s moons. Due to the low levels of radiation, it seemed suitable for the human race to settle there and colonize. However, deep inside the colony lurks a terrible dark secret...

The terrible dark secret is obviously these monsters

Overall, it is likely that this series is going to be very similar to Dead Space or the famous horror movie "The Thing", as Glen Schofield, co-creator of the Dead Space series, is working on the game.

Korean Witcher

This is probably a "niche project" that Krafton is working on. "Korean Witcher" is the nickname of their new RPG based on a 2003 Korean novel 'A bird that drinks tears'. The story centers around a "monster hunter" who kills and eats monsters, which has some similarities to the Witcher. The monsters in the games and the books are based on Korean Mythology, unlike the Witcher's monsters.

This is the only original project Krafton is working on that does not have any relation to the PUBG Universe.

PUBG Cowboy

PUBG Cowboy or Project Cowboy is yet another PUBG spinoff. Originally, it is a PUBG custom game set on Miramar that solely used firearms from the Wild West. However, Krafton decided to make it a full-blown game after the project get expanded enough.

It is likely that this will be some sort of Cowboy game similar to Red Dead Redemption, but with survival gameplay similar to DayZ. In PUBG you can only use some Western weapons like pistols and the Win94, but in PUBG Cowboy, pistols, bolt-action rifles, knives, bows, and arrows are all possibilities.
