G-Star, a 20-year-old game show, has become a representative festival in Busan.

It's the largest ever with more than 1,300 game companies from 44 countries around the world.

Nexon, this year's main sponsor, opened the largest booth to attract visitors' attention.

In particular, the new 'Overkill', which was created using the 'Dungeon & Fighter' IP, was unveiled for the first time through G-Star.

Krafton also unveiled Project Arc and Dingcom Together for the first time. 

'Project Arc' is a team-based tactical shooting game created by developers under Krafton.
As a game company that is good at
shooting games, he stood out for his fast deployment, various tactics, and easy manipulation.

'Dingcom Together' has moved a survival game created by an Australian one-man developer to mobile.

It gives users 'healing' through cute graphics and simple but addictive survival activities.

Netmarble, which was honored with the 'Korea Game Awards' this year, also released two new works using its existing IP.

We turned the famous drama 'The Prince's Game' into a game and recreated our game 'How to Train Your Monster' into a more sophisticated action RPG.

In this G-Star, new works attempting to expand IP were poured out.

The challenge of Korean game companies to target the global game market in various forms stood out.
