Kakao Games to Globally Publish Lionheart's New Title 'Project Q'
Unreal Engine 5-Based Large-Scale New Title
Mobile and PC Cross-Platform Release
Kakao Games announced on the 4th that it has signed a global publishing agreement for the AAA new title ‘Project Q (tentative)’ with its development subsidiary Lionheart Studio.
‘Project Q’ is a large-scale massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) supporting cross-play between mobile and PC. It is a title being developed with the expertise of Lionheart Studio, which developed the mega-hit IP (intellectual property) ‘Odin: Valhalla Rising.’ The game is set in a world reinterpreting the Norse mythology epic ‘Edda,’ featuring top-tier graphics based on Unreal Engine 5 and a full 3D seamless open world with a quarter-view perspective.
Development is underway with a target release next year, and the game will be unveiled for the first time at ‘G-STAR 2024’ on the 14th.
Through this agreement, Kakao Games has acquired the domestic and global (excluding China) service rights for ‘Project Q,’ adding a major new title to its portfolio and accelerating its global market strategy. Leveraging its publishing expertise accumulated in domestic and international markets, Kakao Games will support global service and showcase new synergy through close collaboration with Lionheart Studio, which has strong core development capabilities.
Han Sang-woo, CEO of Kakao Games, said, "Based on Kakao Games’ long-standing publishing capabilities and Lionheart Studio’s development strength, we will deliver the unique fun of ‘Project Q.’"
