KT Game Box to Participate in G-Star... Supporting Gravity's New Game Demo

KT Game Box, Experience Zone Also Set Up
Exclusive Launch of The Forgotten City Korean Version

[Asia Economy Reporter Cha Min-young] KT announced on the 17th that its cloud gaming service ‘Gamebox’ will participate in the international game exhibition ‘G-STAR 2021,’ held from the 17th to the 21st at BEXCO in Busan, together with Gravity.

At Gravity’s booth at G-STAR 2021, KT plans to support the demonstration of Gravity’s new title ‘Ragnarok Begins’ through Gamebox’s cloud gaming solution. Gamebox’s cloud gaming technology provides an environment where users can access and enjoy games stored on servers without separate downloads, via a high-speed, ultra-low latency network.

A waiting zone at Gravity’s booth will also be set up where visitors can experience the Gamebox service. In this experience space, users can directly enjoy over 130 diverse games within Gamebox in a cloud environment across multiple devices such as mobile, IPTV, and PC.

Meanwhile, on the 16th, Gamebox exclusively launched the Korean version of the major title ‘The Forgotten City.’ The Forgotten City is a large-scale adventure game set in the Roman era and received a score of 83 on Metacritic, the world’s largest game review site. The American game webzine IGN highly praised the narrative of The Forgotten City, awarding it 9 points out of 10.

The exclusive release of The Forgotten City’s Korean version has resolved the language barrier, which was the biggest obstacle for domestic users to enjoy the game. The in-depth script, consisting of over 80,000 characters, is a distinctive feature and strength of The Forgotten City. Gamebox plans to continue differentiating itself through exclusive content acquisition.

Lim Hyo-yeol, Executive Director of KT’s New Service P-TF, said, “Through collaboration with Gravity, we were able to showcase the Gamebox service at the country’s largest game exhibition. KT will continue to pursue partnerships with various companies so that more customers can enjoy cloud gaming in a more convenient and seamless environment.”

Meanwhile, Gamebox is continuing a monthly subscription promotion offering a 50% discount to enjoy over 130 games. Gamebox users can enjoy a diverse game lineup reasonably through smartphones, basic-spec PCs, or Giga Genie without needing separate consoles or high-spec gaming PCs.
