Continuous Release and Updates of New Titles Based on Disney IP

[Asia Economy Reporter Cha Min-young] Disney Korea is collaborating with major domestic game companies based on various intellectual properties (IPs) to introduce games across diverse genres, including mobile action RPGs, strategy simulations, and puzzle games. Notably, new games developed in collaboration with SundayToz and Netmarble are scheduled for release in May and the second half of the year, respectively.

According to Disney Korea on the 18th, SundayToz's mobile game 'Nemo's Ocean Life,' set for official release at the end of May, has garnered significant attention, surpassing 700,000 pre-registrations within nine days of the pre-registration event launch. 'Nemo's Ocean Life' is the second game introduced through collaboration between SundayToz and Disney following 'Disney Pop Town.' It is a hybrid genre game combining elements of fish collection, puzzles, social interaction, and simulation, based on the IP of Disney·Pixar's popular animation 'Finding Nemo.' The game incorporates scenes from the animation, with main characters like Nemo and Dory enhancing the gameplay through puzzle skills.

One of Netmarble's most anticipated titles this year, 'Marvel Future Revolution,' is scheduled for simultaneous global release in the second half of the year. 'Marvel Future Revolution' is Marvel IP's first mobile open-world RPG game, which was first showcased last year at the North American game show 'PAX EAST.' The story unfolds around the superhero group 'Omega Flight' fighting against supervillains in a world threatened by the Convergence. Mark Sumerak, a writer known for Marvel Comics' Avengers, Thor, Iron Man, and Captain Marvel, participated in the game's story development.

Launched in 2015 and celebrating its 6th service anniversary this year, Netmarble's flagship mobile action RPG 'Marvel Future Fight' is a collection-based RPG game featuring popular characters from the Marvel Universe such as Iron Man, Black Widow, and Hulk, with over 120 million cumulative downloads worldwide. Last month, 'Marvel Future Fight' offered enhanced rewards such as '6-star X-Men selection ticket' and 'Tier-2 advanced promotion ticket' through its '6th Anniversary Countdown Event.'

JoyCity's strategy simulation game 'Pirates of the Caribbean: Tides of War,' which utilizes the IP of Disney's popular movie series 'Pirates of the Caribbean,' also conducted a 4th-anniversary update on the 12th. New content was added, including 5-tier navigators 'Charles Vane (Water)' and 'Grace Vane (Wind),' as well as the 19-tier 'Hell Hound' ship. Various rewards are provided to users through special missions and attendance events commemorating the 4th anniversary. 'Pirates of the Caribbean: Tides of War,' released in 2017 and currently serviced in 154 countries, emphasizes the IP of the movie of the same name and offers optimized services for users.

Meanwhile, the popular mobile puzzle game Disney Pop Town is also one of SundayToz's representative games driving overseas sales. Utilizing over 20 IPs from popular animations such as Mickey Mouse, Winnie the Pooh, Frozen 2, and Zootopia, this game has offered diverse content since its official launch in March 2019 and the release of the Asia version in October. It achieved first place in Asian regions including Japan and Taiwan, earning SundayToz its first overseas market number one honor. Disney Pop Town reaches up to 600,000 daily active users, with an average of 400,000 users connecting daily.
