"I don't think it's going to be completely open world, but a more dynamic environment [that] you play in," says Maria Park, Krafton's head of corporate development.
Krafton now owns Tango Gameworks and the Hi-Fi Rush IP, but the studio's other properties will remain under Microsoft ownership, it's been confirmed.

European age rating suggests Tango Gameworks' rhythm action title could be headed to Nintendo's platform, as previous leaks have claimed.
Mikami's departure was due to wanting more opportunities for young creators and to distance himself from survival horror.
That's down to higher resolution shadow rendering in the game's PS5 version, according to a Digital Foundry analysis.
