KRAFTON, the publisher behind PUBG: Battlegrounds and The Callisto Protocol, has acquired Tango Gameworks and its flagship IP Hi-Fi Rush.
In a press statement published on KRAFTON’s website, the publisher says:
“As part of this strategic agreement, KRAFTON intends to collaborate with Xbox and ZeniMax to ensure a smooth transition and maintain continuity at Tango Gameworks, allowing the talented team to continue developing the Hi-Fi RUSH IP and explore future projects. KRAFTON intends to support the Tango Gameworks team to continue its commitment to innovation and delivering fresh and exciting experiences for fans. There will be no impact on the existing game catalog of The Evil Within, The Evil Within 2, Ghostwire: Tokyo, and the original Hi-Fi RUSH game.”
Tango Gameworks was shut down by Microsoft along with Arkane Austin in June 2024, shortly after releasing their critically-acclaimed game Hi-Fi Rush on PS5.
At the time of writing Tango Gameworks has not shared a statement regarding the acquisition, but we’ll provide an update when they do.
