The company said in a regulatory filing that operating profit for the year fell 17.4 per cent on-year to 639.6 billion won. Annual revenue increased from 12.9 per cent to 1.88 trillion won, reports Yonhap News Agency.

Krafton has invested $5.4 million in Nautilus Mobile, an Indian sports game developer.
