Netmarble decorated the first half with 'RF' and 'Sena', and it looks like the second half will also be strong.
In the first half of 2025, Netmarble concluded the period with the release of the large-scale MMORPG 'RF Online Next' and the collectible RPG 'Seven Knights Rivers'. The company has strengthened its lineup for the second half of the year by adding not only its previously announced 'The Seven Deadly Sins: Origin' and 'Monknight: Star Dive', but also the new game 'StoneAge: PetWorld'.
Netmarble launched its first work of the year, the MMORPG 'RF Online Next', in the domestic market on March 20th. This game, which inherits the IP of 'RF Online' that started service in 2004 and has been loved for over 20 years, received a lot of attention.
Set against the backdrop of space, the game features a story involving three countries, and it allows for a variety of combat strategies through elements such as bio suits, flight action, and mechanical equipment called 'Shinki.' Since its official release, the game has shown its power by ranking first in sales on both major domestic markets within just six days. As of June 27, it continues to be popular, currently ranking sixth in Google Play sales. To celebrate its 100th day of service, various updates and events have been held recently.
On May 15th, Netmarble unveiled the remake project 'Seven Knights Re:Vive' of its flagship game 'Seven Knights'. This game, after its launch in March 2014, has been loved globally for its stunning graphics, storytelling, and the fun of collecting and growing over 500 characters. The new work preserves the main game elements of the original, such as its story and battle system, while incorporating the latest trends.
The game recorded the top grossing spot on both domestic app markets within 5 days of its release, receiving significant attention from users. As of June 27, it continues to maintain a ranking of 5th place on the Google Play store. Recently, it has gained explosive feedback after releasing a 2025 version of the popular "Sena ha na Sena" song, famously sung by comedian Kim Tae-won with the phrase "Sena ha na sena."
In the first half of the year, Netmarble showcased significant works, and in the second half, they plan to release new titles such as 'Monjil: STAR DIVE', 'The Seven Deadly Sins: Origin', and 'Vampire'. Recently, they also unexpectedly released 'StonaAge: PetWorld', further strengthening their lineup.
'Mongle: STAR DIVE' is a real-time tag action RPG where players form a party of three to enjoy the game. It is a follow-up to Netmarble Monster's hit game 'Monster Taming,' and it is available on multiple platforms supporting both PC and mobile. The PC version is exclusively provided through the Epic Games Store.
Users can experience both strategic depth and speed through a system that allows them to switch between three characters in real-time during battles. The joy of exploring the field is also provided. The use of Unreal Engine 5 results in clean visuals, and the appearance of charming characters in a subculture style is also considered a strength. Additionally, it is noteworthy that players can capture monsters using a special yawn cat character with unique abilities within the game, and then manufacture them into 'Monster Rings' for equipment. This game has recently completed a non-public test and was also unveiled in the global market through Summer Game Fest 2025 (SGF 2025).
또 다른 기대작 '일곱 개의 대죄: 오리진'은 브리타니아 대륙을 오픈월드로 구현한 RPG다. 전 세계 누적 판매 5,500만 부 이상을 기록한 애니메이션 '일곱 개의 대죄' IP를 기반으로 제작되며, 원작 주인공 '멜리오다스'와 '엘리자베스'의 아들 '트리스탄'을 중심으로 한 멀티버스 오리지널 스토리를 담는다.
The protagonist Tristan, as well as the main characters Meliodas, Ban, King, and others, will have their battle styles implemented, and life-type content such as fishing and cooking will also be included. The game garnered global users' attention at SGF in 2025, and is planned to be released simultaneously on console (PS5), PC (Steam), and mobile platforms in the second half of the year.
Netmarble also unveiled its mobile and PC-based MMORPG 'Vampire' and started pre-registration for it. The work was known as 'The RED: Bloodline Successor' during development, and was ultimately finalized with the title 'Vampire.' The development team behind 'Lineage 2 Revolution,' which led the resurgence of mobile MMORPGs, participated in this project.
'BMPV' is an MMORPG set against the backdrop of Gothic horror, featuring a vampire concept and a unique medieval atmosphere. It utilizes the Unreal Engine 5 to enhance graphic quality, and actively employs motion capture technology to bring out the "visual appeal" and "tactile feel" of combat. Its official release is scheduled for this year.
In addition, Netmarble recently surprised the public by unveiling its new game "StoneAge: PetWorld" and initiating global pre-registration. "StoneAge" is a best-selling IP that has been enjoyed by over 200 million people worldwide since 1999. Set in the Stone Age, it captivated both domestic and international audiences with its fun gameplay involving the capture and breeding of hundreds of pets.
'Stone Age: Pet World' inherits the emotional aspects and core fun of the original while equipping itself with convenient and intuitive modern game systems. Users can go on a journey to become the 'Ultimate Trainer,' collecting and raising various pets along the way. In particular, it features large-scale deck combinations composed of up to 6 trainers and 18 pets from 24 different types, the 'Tribe' system where players develop villages together with their tribe members, massive boss raids called 'Descent Battles' where up to 100 pets appear simultaneously, and more.
In addition, Netmarble is also preparing new titles for PC and console platforms such as 'I Am The Only One Leveling Up: Arise Overdrive' and the publishing title 'Project SOL' being developed by Altaria.
Netmarble plans to concentrate its comprehensive capabilities to achieve meaningful results in the domestic and international markets through its new game lineup for the second half of the year.
