Reports suggest a lack of morale among staff members and insufficient business experience within the team. Additionally, the game faced controversy due to the similarities between Project KV and Blue Archive, which is the developers’ previous work at Nexon Games.

As a result of this decision, Dynamis One has removed all promotional materials related to Project KV, including PV images and other assets. Meanwhile the future of the studio remains uncertain and now faces the challenge of regrouping and potentially starting new projects from scratch.
