Krafton Unveils 'Project Black Budget': PUBG Developers Gear Up for a Thrilling Extraction Shooter Set to Ignite 2024 Gaming Scene!

Krafton, the minds behind PUBG, recently announced their upcoming extraction shooter, 'Project Black Budget', set to launch in 2024. The revelation took place during their latest financial call, specifying a release window in the second half of 2024.

Details about the project are currently scarce, but it has been disclosed as an extraction-based shooter. This release adds to the wave of extraction shooters entering the market, with developers and publishers expressing confidence in the genre becoming the next big trend.

However, extraction-based shooters have often fallen short of resonating with the gaming community. Even industry giants like Call of Duty and Battlefield attempted their own takes, ultimately abandoning support shortly after launch.

Krafton, known for delivering massive hits, boasts a team involved in the development of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds (PUBG). PUBG itself achieved tremendous success, setting various world records, including being the first video game to reach 2 million concurrent players on Steam and holding the record for the most concurrent players ever on Steam at 3.2 million.

The success of Krafton in the extraction shooter market remains uncertain. Nevertheless, the teaser art suggests a departure in direction from their previous endeavors. Are you eagerly anticipating Project Black Budget? Share your thoughts in the comments below.
