Gravity unveiled its Q1 2026 financial results on the 8th. The firm recorded revenue of 161.9 billion KRW and an operating profit of 30.8 billion KRW. This represents a 17.8% increase in revenue and a 24.7% rise in operating profit compared to the same period last year.

Gravity’s first-quarter growth was driven by its online and mobile divisions. The online sector saw significant contributions from 'Ragnarok Online' in the Japanese market. The mobile sector thrived on revenue from 'Ragnarok: The New World' in Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Macau, as well as 'Ragnarok Origin Classic' in Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau, and Southeast Asia, alongside global growth for 'Ragnarok X: Next Generation'.

Notably, 'Ragnarok: The New World,' the first open-world MMORPG based on the Ragnarok IP, saw strong initial performance following its January launch in Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Macau. It topped the free game charts on Apple App Stores across all three regions during pre-downloads and reached the number one spot in revenue immediately after launch. It also achieved first place in free game rankings across all three regions, as well as top revenue rankings in Taiwan, Macau, and Hong Kong.

Gravity is pushing to expand the synergy of the Ragnarok IP to realize its mid-to-long-term business vision, 'Ragnarok Hub.' The company aims to strengthen its presence in Southeast Asia, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Macau, while expanding its influence in global markets including China, the Americas, and Europe. In July, 'Ragnarok M: Classic' will launch in Korea, and 'Ragnarok: The New World' is scheduled to launch in Southeast Asia (excluding Vietnam) in July, with a broader global release planned for the fourth quarter.

In the second quarter, the dark fantasy MMORPG 'Requiem M' will launch in Korea, and 'Ragnarok: Twilight Global' will be released globally (excluding certain regions). In the third quarter, 'Ragnarok Zero: Global' is set for release in Southeast Asia, Europe, and Oceania, while 'Ragnarok Origin Classic' will launch in the Americas.

In the second half of the year, the 2D MMORPG 'Ragnarok: Midgard Chronicles' will launch in Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Macau; the MMOARPG 'Ragnarok Abyss' will launch in Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau, and China; and 'Ragnarok: Back to Glory' will see a global release. The flagship title 'Ragnarok 3' is targeted for a Q1 2027 launch in China, with a global release planned for later that year.

Several PC and console titles are also upcoming. In the second half of the year, four titles will be released globally: the retro game 'Jaleco Arcade Collection,' the soul-like boss rush game 'Light Odyssey,' the racing game 'Run Hebereke EX,' and the fantasy guild simulation 'Galbaten: Adventure Guild Office.' The belt-scrolling action RPG 'Final Knight' is scheduled for a global release in the first half of 2027. Through these, Gravity aims to secure a diverse user base across PC and console platforms and accelerate its penetration into the North American market.

A Gravity representative stated, "The successful launch of our first open-world Ragnarok title, 'Ragnarok: The New World,' in Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Macau served as a positive signal for our performance. We will do our best to maintain this steady momentum in the second quarter and the second half of the year with the release of new Ragnarok titles and a diverse range of PC and console games."
