Webzen

Webzen holds one of the most recognizable intellectual properties in Korean gaming history with MU Online, which launched in 2001 and still generates $150 million in annual revenue—a longevity that outperforms Pearl Abyss's more recent portfolio. The isometric action RPG franchise has expanded to over 80 million registered users across Southeast Asia, Eastern Europe, and Latin America. Webzen's global publishing arm has distributed 12 titles in 5 languages, achieving a 25% higher retention rate than the typical local publisher. This data highlights Webzen's enduring market presence and operational resilience.
