Nexon Announces TALESWEAVER MOBILE With Korea Focus Group Test

Nexon announced TALESWEAVER MOBILE on November 6, a new MMORPG built on the Talesweaver IP, with NEXON Korea Corporation handling development.

Reporting from 1 source: Automaton.

Why it matters

Nexon is treating Talesweaver as a rework under the Mobile label rather than a straight port, the same path it took with Mabinogi Mobile, so the December test decides what this build actually contains.

Key Facts

  • Nexon announced TALESWEAVER MOBILE on November 6.
  • NEXON Korea Corporation is developing TALESWEAVER MOBILE.
  • Registration for the Korea focus group test runs until November 15, with the test scheduled for December.
  • Talesweaver released in 2003 and is based on Jeon Min-hee's fantasy novel The Children of the Rune.
  • Talesweaver: SecondRun appeared in November 2022 and its service ended in September 2023.

Registration for a Korea focus group test opened the same day and runs until November 15, with the test set for December to evaluate game content. Talesweaver itself released in 2003 and is based on Jeon Min-hee's novel The Children of the Rune.

Nexon has not described TALESWEAVER MOBILE as a smartphone port of the 2003 MMORPG, which leaves open how much of the original is being rebuilt. The company has put the "Mobile" or "M" label on long-established online games before, and this one is billed as a new work. The December focus group test is framed around content evaluation and quality improvement, not a launch window, and the article lists no global rollout plans. Talesweaver: SecondRun, which appeared in November 2022, ended service in September 2023.
