NCSoft Corporation, a South Korean video game developer and publisher, is set to launch its newest game called “Throne and Liberty.” The company revealed this will be released in the first half of 2023, but there is no specific date yet.
This will be NCSoft’s very first console title which will also be playable on PCs. The game will also be made available globally next year. The company’s chief executive officer, Kim Taek Jin, described the “Throne and Liberty” game as a “play for all” that can bring back the authentic feel of massively multiplayer online role-playing (MMORPG) gameplay.
“Throne and Liberty has been developed as a ‘play for all’ game that everyone can enjoy. The PC and console platforms can express the characteristics of TL and make it fun. The value and feel of an MMO that cannot be experienced through mobile platforms can come to life through PC and console,” the CEO said in the Director's Preview.
In explaining the meaning of the game’s title, Kim said that the name is made up of three words - throne and liberty. He said the first word pertains to competitive combat in battle communities, while “liberty” refers to the adventure and freedom that players can only find in the gaming space. As for the word in the middle, which is “and,” it implies that anyone can play the game regardless of generation and nationality.
“Throne and Liberty” will serve as NCSoft’s next-generation MMORPG that will reach the global market next year. As per The Korea Herald, the game has surely drawn the attention of not just gamers but market watchers as well, and this is because this is the company’s very first title designed for consoles.
NCSoft’s “Throne and Liberty” will be available worldwide, and players can play it on various platforms on consoles and PC. The company is aiming to attract more users from a wide range of players by making it playable on PlayStation, Xbox, Windows, Mac, and Stream.
"Unlike other smaller-scale games, the narrative flow of the characters in ‘Throne and Liberty’ stays the same wherever you go within the game, which is why we labeled it as 'seamless,'" the firm’s spokesman said.
Finally, NCSoft’s CEO is very confident that “Throne and Liberty” will be successful as its “Lineage” game series. They have added more features, including precise character customization to satisfy the demands of different players around the world.
