From the Ruins of Project KV: A Fan-Driven Success Story
Studio Vikundi Unveils Project VK
Following Project KV's September 8th cancellation, Studio Vikundi emerged on X (formerly Twitter) with a statement. The studio confirmed Project KV's influence while assuring fans of their continued, uninterrupted development. They emphasized their commitment to meeting community expectations.
The statement clarified Project VK's independent nature: a non-profit, indie game created by dedicated fans. It explicitly denied any connection to Blue Archive or Project KV, citing disappointment with Project KV's team's unprofessional conduct as the impetus for their project. They affirmed their commitment to ethical development and copyright respect.
Project KV's downfall stemmed from widespread accusations of plagiarism, leveled after its second teaser. The game's striking similarities to Blue Archive—developed by some of its creators during their time at Nexon Games—drew heavy criticism. Allegations encompassed its visual style, music, and core concept: a city populated by armed female students.
Dynamis One, Project KV's developer, announced the cancellation just a week after the teaser's release, apologizing for the controversy. For a comprehensive analysis of Project KV's cancellation and the subsequent backlash, please see our related article.
