Court filings claim that Krafton chief executive Changham Kim consulted ChatGPT while searching for methods to avoid paying a $250 million performance bonus to Unknown Worlds developers after the studio achieved its sales targets. The pre-trial documents allege that Kim viewed the potential payout as professionally embarrassing and feared being perceived as weak, prompting what was internally labeled Project X.

The legal dispute between Krafton and Unknown Worlds co-founders Charlie Cleveland, Ted Gill, and Max McGuire escalated with accusations that the Korean publisher deliberately sabotaged Subnautica 2 development to delay its early access release. The filing suggests Krafton planned coordinated efforts, including the potential seizure of the company's digital assets if negotiations failed.

Krafton denies the allegations and maintains that leadership changes resulted from the former executives prioritizing personal projects over game development. The company asserts its primary focus remains delivering quality experiences to Subnautica fans.
