Nexon, celebrating its 30th anniversary this year, has announced plans to expand its global market presence by strengthening its intellectual property (IP) franchises. The company is also officially developing a sequel to its first game, "Kingdom of the Winds," which was released in 1996.
Kang Dae-hyun, co-CEO of Nexon Korea, stated that the company will focus on creating IP-based ecosystems by developing and expanding its existing popular franchises, such as MapleStory, Dungeon & Fighter, and Mabinogi. This strategy aims to provide players with deeper and more engaging experiences within these game universes.
Nexon plans to release "First Berserker: Khazan," a hardcore action RPG based on the Dungeon & Fighter universe, in the first half of next year. Additionally, the company is developing "Project Overkill," a 3D action RPG set in the Dungeon & Fighter world, and "Dungeon & Fighter: Arad," an open-world action RPG.
The company has also confirmed the development of "Kingdom of the Winds 2," a sequel to its iconic MMORPG. This new game will feature a combination of 2D and 3D graphics, offering a fresh and immersive experience for players.
Nexon will continue to expand its publishing business and explore new IPs while strengthening its existing franchises. The company will also be showcasing five new games at the upcoming G-Star gaming exhibition, including "SuperVIVE," "Project Overkill," "First Berserker: Khazan," "Hwanse Chwihojeon Online," and "ARC Raiders."
