CES 2025 has unveiled a groundbreaking innovation in mobile gaming: the AI-powered Co-Playable Character (CPC). Krafton, the creators of PUBG, announced this new concept on January 8th. This isn't your average NPC; the CPC uses generative AI to create dynamic, interactive characters. This technology is set to revolutionize both PUBG and inZOI.

inZOI's implementation, dubbed "Smart Zoi," promises characters with distinct personalities and emotional depth, creating a more immersive and lifelike simulation experience.

In PUBG, the "PUBG Ally" will adapt its strategies to complement the player, enhancing gameplay dynamics. Whether this is thrilling or unsettling is entirely a matter of personal preference.

Developed in partnership with NVIDIA ACE, the CPCs will engage in real-time conversations and adapt their behavior to the unfolding game scenarios. “Our collaboration with NVIDIA is a testament to the transformative potential of AI in gaming, and we plan to work closely together to push the boundaries of what is possible," states Kangwook Lee, Head of Krafton's Deep Learning Division.
