Kakao Games' Dalbitjogaksa as a Strategy Game

Major Update in the First Half of the Year
Localization Work for Global Expansion Preparation Also Underway

[Asia Economy Reporter Jin-gyu Lee] Kakao Games is launching a global expansion through a major update of its mobile MMORPG (Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game) 'Dalbitjogaksa' (Moonlight Sculptor).

According to industry sources on the 10th, Kakao Games will carry out a massive update for Dalbitjogaksa by June. The update scheduled for next month will add new regions and new classes within the game, providing users with new adventures. Pre-registration for the update has been open since the 7th. Kakao Games also plans additional updates within the first half of the year. Localization efforts for Dalbitjogaksa's global expansion are currently underway.

Dalbitjogaksa attracted attention even before its release as it was developed with the participation of Song Jae-kyung, CEO of XL Games, a star developer known for major MMORPG titles such as 'Baram-ui Nara' (The Kingdom of the Winds) and 'Lineage.' The game features an extensive world based on the fantasy novel 'Dalbitjogaksa' by author Nam Hee-seong, which was serialized for 13 years. Thanks to Dalbitjogaksa's success, Kakao's game content division recorded sales of 105.9 billion KRW in the fourth quarter of last year, a 6% increase compared to the same period the previous year. As of this month, the cumulative number of downloads has exceeded 3 million.
