Mgame will open a new global server on November 12 for Knight Online, an MMORPG it co-develops and operates with Noah System.
Prior to opening the new server, two phases of pre-registration will be conducted with the local publisher. The first pre-registration period runs from October 15 to 29, followed by the second pre-registration and server selection period from October 29 to November 9. Early character creation will be supported on November 10 and 11.
Mgame plans to run advertisements across online media and social channels according to the pre-registration schedule. The company aims to drive both player returns and new user acquisition through content highlighting large-scale nation-vs-nation battles.
Knight Online previously opened a new server in November 2022, its first in three years. On launch day, it generated $910,000, setting a record for the highest single-day revenue since service launch, and reached its highest monthly revenue since local operations began in 2005 during the following month. December revenue grew 55% month-over-month and 432% year-over-year.
In the fourth quarter of 2024, user retention following the expansion of new channels led to Mgame's highest Q1 revenue on record in Q1 2025.
Byeong-heon Choi, Director of Knight Online Development, said, "'Knight Online' is a title that has seen enthusiastic player responses every time a new server or channel is launched." He added, "Since both returning players and new user influx occur simultaneously, we expect this new server launch to serve as a driving force for revenue growth."
Originally launched in South Korea in July 2002, Knight Online is an MMORPG known for its large-scale nation-vs-nation combat. It is currently operated in over 30 countries, including the US and Europe, and is also available on Steam.
