The Korea AI Game Association, alongside the Korea Creative Content Agency and Sogang University Industry-Academic Cooperation Foundation, is recruiting mentees for the 2026 Content Creative Talent Accompaniment Project to foster future leaders in the game industry.

The program aims to support young creators by providing apprenticeship-style mentorship from industry experts, focusing on strengthening AI-driven game development capabilities and facilitating their entry into the professional industry.

This year, the program focuses on 'Mentorship for Developers Leveraging AI to Streamline Game Creation,' offering practical training that integrates generative AI across the entire development pipeline, including planning, art, server-side, level design, and marketing. Mentors from major domestic game companies and industry experts, including Neople, Com2uS, Unity Korea, and Smilegate, will participate.

The recruitment is open to aspiring creators and indie game developers (or teams) aged 19 to 34, with a total of 22 mentees to be selected. Selected mentees will sign an agreement for approximately 6.5 months, from May 1st to November 15th, and will participate in institutional training and mentorship programs alongside their personal project development. The program provides support for creative activities, practical training, and project execution opportunities.

Applications are accepted online until 11:00 AM on April 15th. Final candidates will be selected through document screening and interviews. Applicants must submit an application form, a self-introduction, a project proposal, and a portfolio.

An association representative stated, "As AI technology rapidly spreads across the entire game development process, this program focuses on equipping creators with skills that can be immediately applied in the field. We look forward to the active participation of talented individuals who possess both creativity and technical expertise."
