Nexon’s empire grows ever-larger as the publisher and developer continues to acquire more colonies for its glory. This week, the company entered into a business deal to publish and market First Strike Games’ unannounced maiden title.

First Strike Games is a recently founded (2016) studio comprised of former Microsoft, Bethesda, and Sony developers who have worked on both PC and console titles. The studio said that it is “super-focused on competitive multiplayer games.”

So what’s this game about? All we know so far is that it is being made with a team of 30 to 50 developers, is online, and will have a “broad appeal.”

Nexon CEO Owen Mahoney gave high praise for First Strike, saying, “This partnership will leverage First Strike Games’ passion and unbeatable background in multiplayer games and our deep expertise in online services to build innovative games that appeal to global tastes and engage communities of players that will stand the test of time.”
