NO LAW is in development at Neon Giant and scheduled for release in 2027 on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC. The most recent material is a KRAFTON developer video from September 25, 2026 that presents player freedom as the design pillar.
NO LAW is a first-person cyber noir shooter from Neon Giant, the studio behind The Ascent, and published by KRAFTON. The game is set in Port Desire, a lawless cyber-noir port town, and follows Gray Harker, a former soldier who wanted a quiet life before trouble found him. Combat shown so far includes firearms, stealth, hacking, bombs, kicking through doors, and special abilities that make enemies explode.
The project surfaced at Unreal Fest Chicago 2026, where Neon Giant, a studio of about 20 developers, presented its Unreal Engine 5 technology for Port Desire and a system where the environment affects gameplay. The studio described its approach as 'Density Over Scale.' KRAFTON then announced the release window at gamescom Opening Night Live 2026, confirming a 2027 target after the window had been undecided. A gameplay segment followed at the Future Games Show: gamescom 2026 broadcast, built around the ability to eliminate any NPC.
The most recent story is a KRAFTON developer video, 'Dev Diary - Player Agency | Freedom of Approach,' released on September 25, 2026. Creative Director Arcade Berg said the priority was letting players do what they want, with spaces and the city built around multiple playstyles. Principal Programmer Roger Mattsson said he looks forward to being surprised by the playstyles players invent. Player choices affect the city, and repeated play leads to new endings.
Across the five stories, the release plan is settled: 2027 on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC via Steam, Epic Games Store, and Microsoft Store. Everything KRAFTON and Neon Giant have shown so far is systems and approach. No story date or narrative reveal has been announced.
