Krafton will take over publishing and service operations for Hi-Fi Rush from Bethesda Softworks beginning November 14, 2025, according to an official notice issued to players. The transition marks a shift in management for the rhythm action title nearly two years after its initial release. The change will occur at 9:00 AM Korea Standard Time, with updates to store listings and service infrastructure rolling out gradually.
According to the announcement, the transition affects administrative and operational responsibilities rather than the game’s core content. Store page materials, including images and descriptions, will be updated to reflect Krafton’s new role. Bethesda Softworks will no longer be responsible for service support once the handoff begins.
An in-game update is scheduled for December 4, 2025, when visual and backend elements will be revised to align with the new operator. Until this patch is applied, the game’s Bethesda.net connection feature will be disabled. The notice warns that players may encounter error messages or other irregularities during this period. Krafton advises users to contact its customer service team if issues arise, though no specific examples of potential disruptions were provided.
Both companies state that the change will not affect gameplay progression or player data. Save files, achievements, and general account information are expected to transfer without interruption. This assurance is based solely on the operators announcement, and independent verification of the data handling process has not been offered.
Krafton has directed players to a dedicated support portal for assistance following the transition. The publisher has not outlined whether the change in operation signals broader strategic plans for the title or if further updates are under consideration.
The service transfer ensures that Hi Fi Rush remains available while backend responsibilities shift to a new operator. Additional details on long-term support or future content have not been disclosed.
