NCSOFT's MMORPG 'Aion 2' officially launched globally on October 5.
The game is available through Steam and Purple, and the company reported that it exceeded 400,000 peak concurrent users at the start of the official service.
'Aion 2' is a key title in NCSOFT's strategy to expand into global markets, including North America and Europe. In February, NCSOFT hired global game publishing expert Merwin Lee Kway to oversee publishing and live services at its North American subsidiary, NCSOFT America, in preparation for the global launch of 'Aion 2' and other new titles.
The early access period for 'Aion 2' ran from September 30 to October 5 for users who purchased the 'Founders Pack'. During this time, the game maintained the number one spot on Steam's global chart for 'Top Sellers' based on revenue and ranked first in 15 countries. As of October 6, it also holds the top position in Steam's global charts for 'Most Popular New Games' and 'Notable Free Games'.
To celebrate the global launch of 'Aion 2', NCSOFT released a 'Development Behind the Scenes' video on its global YouTube channel, showcasing the core goals and development process of the team.
'Aion 2' operates servers in four regions: North America, South America, Europe, and Asia (Japan), supporting a total of eight languages, including English, Japanese, French, German, and Spanish.
