Hi-Fi Rush and Ghostwire: Tokyo developer Tango Gameworks has revealed that it's still looking to make "unique and interesting" games following its acquisition by PUBG publisher Krafton earlier this year.

As a reminder, Microsoft washed its hands of Tango (alongside Redfall developer Arkane Austin) earlier this year, leading many to believe that the studio's days were done. However, Krafton then swept in to purchase Tango Gameworks, as well as the Hi-Fi Rush IP.
In the interview, Egashira confirms that Tango Gameworks' overall goal is "still IP creation", and that rather than making creative decisions, Krafton's part in things is to help Tango "expand".
That appears to be a sentiment echoed by Krafton itself, incidentally. Back in September, CEO Changhan Kim said he didn't think Hi-Fi Rush 2 would be a profitable endeavor, but that his company wants to "try something new" and take risks, which is a rather refreshing outlook.
