Dungeon and Fighter Mobile – Dragon Time?
Dungeons are usually associated with dragons, but although this battle royale has all the magic, it seems to be missing the some dragons. Originally released in 2005 on PC, this mobile adaptation of Dungeon and Fighter has been in development for over seven years.
In South Korea, Nexon developed and released the mobile version in 2022. However, its Chinese release was postponed due to government restrictions on the gaming industry between 2018 and 2022.
There was a recent closed test conducted by Tencent which included 300,000 players and yielded promising results. HSBC reported solid performance metrics, including daily active users, retention rate, and user spending patterns.

Featuring side-scrolling beat-em-up action and RPG elements, Dungeon and Fighter lets you choose from several different character classes.
The Dungeon & Fighter series was created by Neople, a subsidiary of Nexon. While early entries were developed and published exclusively by Neople, Nexon soon began publishing other entries and outsourcing development to other companies.
“Dungeon and Fighter: Origin” is a mobile adaptation of Tencent’s “Dungeon and Fighter” PC game, one of the world’s most profitable computer games. The game was released in South Korea in 2022 to immediate success. However, not all has been great for the game. In 2013, the North American version of the game was forced to shut down.
A year later, Neople held a global beta test for the game which brought great success. Nonetheless, ongoing differences between Nexon and Neople led to multiple publishing of the game in different global markets.
According to the game’s investment report for quarter 3, 2023, Dungeon and Fighters is the most played online game.
Dungeon Fighter Online is one of the most-played and highest-grossing video games of all time, with over 850 million players worldwide and over $22 billion in lifetime revenue as of June 2023. This also makes it one of the highest-grossing entertainment media products of all time.
