Nexon reported a 6.5 percent increase in revenue for 2025, reaching 475.1 billion yen, or about 3.1 billion dollars, marking the third consecutive year of record highs. The company attributed much of this growth to the success of Arc Raiders, which sold over 14 million copies since its October launch. Peak concurrent players reached nearly one million on PC alone in January 2026, with around six million weekly active users.
South Korea's Supreme Court has rejected Nexon's copyright infringement allegations against Dark and Darker developer Ironmace, allowing development to continue uninterrupted. The ruling, delivered by Justice Park Young-jae, dismissed requests to shut down the game and rejected all appeals from both parties. Ironmace must still pay 5.7 billion Korean Won for trade secret violations but received a partial refund.
