It features a Global One Build service, full 3D-based quarter view, and real-time artificial intelligence (AI) translation function. Cross-play service between PC and mobile through console devices is also being prepared.
NCSoft is holding an event to celebrate achieving first place in the app market. All users can participate in the event and receive various benefits.
