According to The Korean Economic Daily, citing insider sources, Krafton has now been forced to pay out that bonus, which equates to $3.12 for every $1 every month that Unknown Worlds surpasses $69.8 million in revenue, with an upper limit of $250 million. This amounts to around 35% of Krafton’s operating profit in 2025, which may explain why Krafton fought tooth and nail to avoid paying the sum.

Subnautica devs have maxed out their bonuses already 😂

    Was that confirmed by anyone else? Because as far as I know Krafton made that claim and I wouldn’t trust a single word Krafton says.

      From the articles I read: the three main developers didn’t deny that fact but said, they will give parts of their money to the others. And apparently they did do that for the initial money they got for selling the company to Krafton in the first place, so at least once they followed their word.
