Kakao Games has shared details of its agreement with Npixel, whose subsidiary Chrono Studio is directly developing the MMORPG Chrono Odyssey. Under this agreement, the publisher will assume responsibility for distributing the game both in South Korea and in the global market, except for Russia and China. At the moment, the Steam page is still open to users from Russia, but it is possible that access to it will soon be limited.
“As Chrono Odyssey has captured global attention since its first reveal, we’re excited to see the finished product. Through close collaboration with developers, we will support Chrono Odyssey to play an important role in expanding the Kakao Games platform and increasing its global impact,” Han Sang-woo, CEO of Kakao Games.
“Chrono Studio is pleased to partner with Kakao Games, which has accumulated extensive experience serving MMORPGs in different countries. We will focus our efforts on introducing the new features of Korean MMORPGs and the unique gaming experience to a global audience through Chrono Odyssey,” Bong-Gun Bae, Head of Chrono Studio.
Let us remind you that on March 20 at GDC 2024 a new trailer for the game was presented, and after that a page on Steam was opened. In addition, it became known that Kakao Games will become a global publisher, and the project will be distributed according to a one-time purchase model (Buy-to-Play). The release date is still unknown, but the developers promise to share details “soon”.
