SEOUL, October 08 (AJP) - Korea's largest gaming exhibition, G-Star 2024, is set to showcase a range of new titles when it opens on Nov. 14 in Busan.

The four-day event, sponsored by leading game developer Nexon for the first time in seven years, is expected to feature a record-breaking 3,281 booths, including 2,364 in the business-to-consumer (B2C) area and 917 in the business-to-business (B2B) section.

Several major gaming companies have confirmed their participation, including Krafton, Netmarble, and Pearl Abyss. Krafton, with its title game "PUBG: Battlegrounds," is to present three new games, including "inZOI," a life simulation game that drew attention at Germany's Gamescom in August.

Pearl Abyss, known for its "Black Desert" franchise, will present "Red Desert," a single-player open-world action-adventure game that showcased high-quality graphics at the German game convention.

Lion Heart Studio will make its G-Star debut, presenting four new titles across various genres, from mobile hack-and-slash to console root-shooter games.
