Mgame announced on the 18th that 'Yulgang: Return', a mobile MMORPG developed by Chinese studio Kingnet using graphical assets from 'Yulgang Online' and co-published by Pifun Games, reached 5th place on the Google Play revenue charts on the 15th.

'Yulgang: Return' topped the Apple App Store popularity charts immediately after its launch on the 7th, and reached number one on Google Play just two days later. It rapidly expanded its player base, breaking into the top 5 in revenue within eight days of service. As of the 18th, following the weekend, it currently sits at 7th place.

This performance is attributed to the IP power of the comic martial arts MMORPG 'Yulgang Online', which commands a loyal fanbase and taps into a deep well of nostalgia. 'Yulgang Online' has maintained a long-standing presence both domestically and abroad, thanks to its distinct comic martial arts genre and character designs.

The original version of 'Yulgang: Return', developed by Kingnet, topped the App Store popularity charts in China upon its release in August 2023 and was selected as one of the 'Top 10 Chinese Games of 2023'. In Thailand, it amassed 3 million cumulative players and topped the total revenue charts, while also securing high-ranking positions in Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Macau with over 1 million players.

'Yulgang: Return' is an MMORPG centered on the conflict between the Order, Chaos, and neutral factions, featuring community staples like clans, master-disciple systems, and free trading. It captures the essence of the original online title while adapting to mobile devices with an SD-style 3D aesthetic.

Mgame CEO Kwon Yi-hyung stated, "Achieving such high popularity and revenue rankings in a short time proves the potency of the 'Yulgang Online' IP and the synergy found in our global partnerships. We are committed to maintaining this long-term success through stable service operations and continuous IP expansion."
