Krafton announces new multiplayer FPS title PUBG: Ded.net at Gamescom 2026

Krafton’s newest upcoming game is a first-person shooter title named PUBG: Ded.net. Announced during Gamescom 2026’s Opening Night Live presentation today, August 25, PUBG: Ded.net takes place in the Cascadia region of the Pacific Northwest — a mountainous, wooded environment showcased in the game’s official trailer, populated with fictional points of interest with names like Cryptid Cove and Cult Church. It’s a multiplayer FPS that allows for roguelite progression across players’ runs, although the trailer did not reveal more specific information about how exactly the roguelite elements will impact gameplay. Interested players can pre-register for PUBG: Ded.net’s closed beta, as well as a newsletter promising development updates, by logging in using their Krafton player accounts on the game’s official website. For the moment, Krafton has shared few additional details about the upcoming game, although the company has already rolled out official presences for Ded.net across YouTube, TikTok, and other social platforms, as well as gaming marketplaces like Steam. Krafton has dozens of games currently in development, and its lineup at Gamescom 2026 includes both PUBG: Ded.net and previously announced in-development titles No Law, Project Zeta, Age Twisters, and Tarae: The Unbound. PUBG: Ded.net is part of a wave of new games announced during today’s Opening Night Live presentation at Gamescom 2026; keep an eye on GamesBeat for more coverage of the ongoing event — particularly from GamesBeat editorial director Dean Takahashi, who is on the ground in Cologne this week. PUBG: Ded.net takes place in the 1990s, which a Krafton representative described in a press release as “one of the most pivotal eras in American cultural history.” As a 90s kid, I’m inclined to agree, and I’m curious to see how Krafton mixes iconography from the decade with elements of PUBG IP in its upcoming shooter game.
