Kuro Games, the developer behind hit titles like Punishing: Gray Raven and Wuthering Waves appears to be developing a new competitive game according to recent job listings on Chinese recruitment platform Zhipin. The postings suggest the company is expanding its portfolio beyond action RPGs into the competitive gaming space.
The listings, which were machine translated from Chinese, were looking for individuals with competitive gaming expertise. Both positions mention substantial salaries with payment structures, indicating significant investment in the project.

Of particular interest is the Test Team Leader position, which explicitly mentions responsibilities including developing “anti-cheating detection systems,” building “network synchronization test solutions,” and monitoring “version balance.” The ideal candidate should “love competitive games” and “reach a high level in mainstream competitive games,” further suggesting the competitive nature of the project.
The listings also contain tags for multiple game genres including RTS, MOBA, RPG, shooting, and fighting games, though it’s unclear if these represent the specific focus of the new title or simply desired experience areas.
While some speculation connects this project to the previously teased Project Nami, industry observers suggest this may be an entirely separate IP being developed by Kuro Games. Kuro Games has not officially announced details about this project, and these job listings provide the first substantial hints about their potential expansion into the competitive gaming market.
