Developers of the “Korean Witcher” showed atmospheric footage of the world and characters

Krafton, responsible for the success of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds, has released new footage of a game inspired by the Korean fantasy novel series “The Bird That Drinks Tears”.

Back in 2021, the South Korean company announced its intention to develop its own The Witcher, and a few months ago published the first trailer demonstrating the concept of the game based on the works of writer Lee Yeong-do.

The game The Bird That Drinks is being developed on Unreal Engine 5, and players will take on the role of the book's protagonist, Kagan Draka, also known as the Naga Slayer. The developers want to properly prepare a wide audience, and for this reason, they released a video announcing an artbook. Its pages depict locations and characters, and the creators emphasize that the work is designed to “entertain and inspire readers and creators”.

“We wanted to transform the abstract inspiration that we gained from the novel into a realistic depiction that we could hold in our hands, and now we are showing you the result.”

Scenes from the “Korean Witcher” look atmospheric. All that is left is to wait for the developers to reveal more information about the game.
