(Photo = Nexon) With Neowiz’s new console game ‘The Lies of P’ released on September 19, domestic game companies are busy preparing new console games. Neowiz simultaneously released ‘P’s Lies’ globally on PlayStation, Xbox, and PC versions on September 19th. Although it received a somewhat disappointing rating of 80 on the overseas rating site Metacritic, the reviews from users such as Steam were not bad. Other game companies such as Nexon, NCSoft, and Pearl Abyss are also preparing new PC and console games. Nexon conducted a cross-play open beta test for the new route shooter game ‘First Descendant’ from the 19th to the 26th. ‘First Descendant’ is a game that combines shooting and RPG, and is being developed by Nexon Games, a subsidiary of Nexon. ‘First Descendant’ supports not only PC but also console platforms such as PlayStation 4·5 and Xbox Series X·S, and also implements a crossplay function. On the first day of testing on the 19th, the highest number of concurrent users on Steam was 77,000, attracting great interest from users. ‘First Descendant’ producer Beomjun Lee said, “We are grateful that many users enjoyed the game despite the various issues,” and said that test results and future plans will be shared as soon as they are ready. (Photo = NCSoft) NCSoft has entered the final stages of development for its next PC and console game, ‘Throne and Liberty (TL).’ The domestic release date of ‘TL’ is scheduled for December. Ahead of the release, NCSoft announced several improvements related to ‘TL’. First, we decided to delete auto-hunting and auto-movement from the game. This is a result that reflects user feedback confirmed in a domestic beta test last May. NCSoft decided to delete the ‘automatic hunting’ system, which received the most requests for improvement from users. Producer Ahn Jong-ok, who is in charge of the development of ‘TL’, said, “We judged automatic hunting to be a flow in MMORPGs that require long-term play, but I think it was a decision made too easily.” “We reflected on the fact that it is a game that you can control and become immersed in, and we completely removed auto-hunting and auto-movement,” he said. Afterwards, new content was also released, including two types of boss monsters that can be conquered by enjoying the fun of control and interacting with the environment, three types of areas in an open world, and a ‘Party Instance Dungeon’ in which six users cooperate to attack. . (Photo = Pearl Abyss) Pearl Abyss is focusing on developing its next game, ‘Red Desert’. ‘Red Desert’, which is being developed on PC and console, is a work that attracted attention by being introduced at domestic and international game shows such as G-Star and Gamescom after the video was released through ‘The Game Awards’ in December 2020. A new gameplay video was also released at Gamescom 2023, a German game show held this year, capturing the attention of gamers at home and abroad. This game depicts the story of mercenaries fighting for survival on the vast continent of Pywel with realistic characters and stories. Above all, the high level of action is its strength. Pearl Abyss has not revealed the release date of ‘Red Desert’, but is aiming to complete development within the year. The gaming industry’s view is that it is highly likely to be released in the first half of next year. UP0 DOWN0 ⓒViewers Unauthorized reproduction and redistribution prohibited
