KRAFTON, Inc. has officially launched the KRAFTON CREATOR NETWORK (KCN), a new global program designed to support gaming content creators worldwide. This initiative aims to help creators grow their audiences while promoting KRAFTON’s popular games like PUBG and inZOI.
The KCN program welcomes eligible creators from around the world who want to partner with the gaming company. According to the announcement, official KCN members can earn at least 5% of the net revenue from in-game purchases made using their unique creator codes (its like a referral code), creating a new income stream for content creators.
Beyond financial benefits, the program offers several exclusive perks to its members. These include special in-game rewards, early access to upcoming KRAFTON titles, and invitations to special events. Players supporting these creators by using their unique codes will also receive special in-game benefits, creating a win-win situation for both creators and their followers.
To join the KCN program, applicants must meet certain requirements. They need to be at least 18 years old and have a minimum of 1,000 followers on recognized social media platforms such as YouTube, Facebook, X, Twitch, or TikTok. The program is available globally, with the exception of internationally sanctioned countries.
Once accepted, official KCN creators must maintain their follower count and meet other participation criteria to remain in the program.
This type of creator support program is highly successful for Epic Games (creator of Fortnite), as companies recognize the important role content creators play in game promotion and community building.
Krafton also has a history of supporting creative endeavors, as seen with initiatives like the Wonder Creators Network for PUBG Mobile (announced in 2023 with a $100 million investment over three years). The KCN appears to be an evolution or expansion of such efforts, broadening the scope to encompass creators beyond just one title.
While specific details like the official launch date aren’t fully outlined, some speculate that the program will roll out in early 2025. For more details, you can check Krafton’s website.
