[Asia Economy Reporter Hyungsoo Park] Longtu Korea's subsidiary Tigon Mobile announced on the 1st that it has officially launched the mobile massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) ‘Yeolhyeol Gangho Global’ in the global market.
Prior to the launch of Yeolhyeol Gangho Global, the global pre-registrations surpassed 5 million. The IP (intellectual property) on which the game is based, ‘Yeolhyeol Gangho,’ has exceeded 6 million copies in global martial arts comic book sales, 7 million paid digital downloads, and 1 billion paid subscriptions.
Yeolhyeol Gangho Global is a game that added the payment method Tigon Token (TIG) to ‘Yeolhyeol Gangho for Kakao,’ which Longtu Korea released in 2017. At the time of its release, Yeolhyeol Gangho for Kakao held the record of ranking 3rd in Google Play revenue and 1st in One Store revenue. It is explained that with a solid user base, future global achievements are expected.
Yeolhyeol Gangho Global applied the Tigon Token, a utility token of the WEMIX platform, and the P2E (Play-to-Earn) currency Crystal. Going forward, Tigon Token will be used as a common coin in P2E games based on the WEMIX platform released by Longtu Korea and Tigon Mobile. Starting with the launch of Yeolhyeol Gangho Global, the release of P2E games based on the WEMIX platform will be actively pursued.
A company official stated, "The martial arts comic IP Yeolhyeol Gangho, representing the Republic of Korea, is standing at a new starting line," and added, "We will strive to make it a game loved by global users with an uncompromising attitude toward stability and quality."
