The opening session also introduced five exciting new game titles. Among them, 'AION2' is set to launch on November 19, 2025, in Korea and Taiwan, promising an evolution of the original 'AION' with enhanced content and features. This game is highly anticipated, being regarded as NC's most promising release yet.

NCSOFT also unveiled 'Horizon Steel Frontiers', a next-generation MMORPG based on the popular 'Horizon' series. With stunning visuals and a rich narrative, this title aims to create an immersive experience across both mobile and PC platforms through their proprietary gaming platform, PURPLE.

Additionally, 'Cinder City,' created by NC's development studio BigFire Games, is an open-world tactical shooter that offers players an AAA-quality story and multiplayer experience. Other titles revealed include 'Limit Zero Breakers', an animated action RPG, and 'TIME TAKERS', a time survival shooter, both of which are set for release under NC’s publishing.

In conclusion, Kim Teck-Jin remarked, “Games will continue to provide enjoyment and solace to people.” He stated that G-STAR is not just a showcase of their past but a stage for opening doors to the future of gaming. As NC moves forward, it aims not only to honor its heritage but also to embrace innovation and change, ensuring a bright future for players worldwide who are eager for diverse and engaging experiences.
