NCSoft announced a minimum revenue target guidance of 2 trillion KRW for next year. This was calculated by taking into account the continued expansion of legacy IP and the effects of new releases expected in the second half of 2025, based on major indicator forecasts.

As concrete plans to achieve the revenue target, they suggested ‘expansion of Legacy IP’ through large-scale updates, expansion of service regions, and the launch of spin-off games, as well as accelerating the release of new IPs like Aion 2, LLL, Breakers, and Time Takers.”
