Leveling Up: How KRAFTON Plans to Transform India into a Gaming Superpower

KRAFTON India CEO Sean Hyunil Sohn has announced plans for significant investment and potential acquisitions in India's rapidly growing gaming market. The company, which has already invested $200 million, sees India as one of its top five global markets. Sohn emphasized the country's unique position as a mobile-first gaming landscape with enormous potential. KRAFTON aims to double down on gaming and related sectors, leveraging India's young, tech-savvy population and increasing smartphone adoption. The CEO highlighted the need for government and educational support to nurture gaming talent and expressed optimism about India's regulatory approach. KRAFTON's strategy includes partnering with passionate game developers and exploring opportunities beyond its current successful titles like BGMI.
