Nexon is a leader in global entertainment with a portfolio of successful game franchises enjoyed by hundreds of millions of people around the world. At Nexon’s core are globally recognized entertainment franchises sustained with ongoing fresh content by our live-operations teams -- a unique skill set Nexon pioneered and mastered over the past 20 years.
By leveraging best-in-class development and live-game operations, our teams innovate aggressively to express our properties on powerful new technology and platforms. The world is experiencing a secular shift in entertainment from lean-back linear formats to sit-forward interactive entertainment. In this dynamic environment, Nexon is positioned to lead the entertainment industry into a new paradigm of new content, on new platforms powered by new technology.
Nexon and its established popular franchises have been at the epicenter of the games business in Asia, a dramatic creative environment with a high adoption and growth rate in interactive entertainment. Nexon’s unique Live Game Operations capability provides a stream of fresh content that sustains our Virtual Worlds for existing games and new titles in development in Asia. In the West, Nexon’s Embark Studios, helmed by industry veteran Patrick Söderlund, plays a central role in Nexon’s development strategy with multiple new games in development and innovations on technology that will change how games are made and played. The combination of Nexon's expertise in live operations and Embark's capacity for developing blockbuster games serve as a powerful creative force in global entertainment.
Nexon sustains a reliable revenue base by building deeply immersive online virtual worlds and leveraging the company’s best-in-class live operations to grow games over years. Nexon continues to break industry records for longevity of game franchises, with massively successful wholly-owned IP1 franchises including MapleStory and Dungeon&Fighter entering their 18th and 16th year of live service respectively.
Nexon is creating deeply immersive online Virtual Worlds for multiple platforms and is building the future of its global business with platform convergence as a key focus. The creative teams at Nexon are pioneering innovative technologies including Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning, which will fundamentally change how games are made and played.
Founded in 2021, this division of the company is dedicated to extending Nexon’s global franchises onto new platforms that drive broader and deeper audience engagement with Nexon IP, including most importantly in our core gaming business
