Krafton, the company behind PUBG, reported a record-breaking annual revenue of $1.5 billion. This financial success has spurred the company to set its sights on securing a “big franchise IP.” The company’s growth is evident in its financials, with a 36% increase in revenue from the previous year. Despite this, Krafton’s operating profit saw a 14% decrease, totaling $470 million. The company’s focus now shifts towards expanding its intellectual property portfolio, aiming to leverage its financial strength to acquire or develop a major franchise. This strategic move comes as Krafton continues to navigate the competitive landscape of game development, where securing a significant IP can be a game-changer.
