CES 2025 has unveiled a groundbreaking innovation in mobile gaming: the AI-powered "Co-Playable Character" (CPC). This new concept, first announced by PUBG's Krafton on January 8th, will soon be integrated into both PUBG and inZOI. CPCs are essentially Non-Playable Characters (NPCs) enhanced with generative AI, bringing a new level of interaction to the gaming experience.

inZOI's implementation, dubbed "Smart Zoi," promises emotionally nuanced characters with distinct personalities, enriching the simulation's realism. PUBG's version, the "PUBG Ally," will dynamically adapt its strategies to complement player actions, enhancing gameplay dynamics.

Developed in collaboration with NVIDIA ACE, CPCs enable real-time conversations and context-adaptive scenarios. Kangwook Lee, Head of Krafton's Deep Learning Division, stated, *"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."*
