COWON, Global Pre-Registration for 'The Skull 2: Ma Wang Selection' Underway

[Asia Economy Reporter Jang Hyowon] COWON, a game publishing specialist company (CEO Lee Seunghoon), announced that from the 15th, it will start the global pre-registration event for ‘The Skull 2: Ma Wang Selection Battle’. This global pre-registration event will run until July, with a large-scale update and an official global launch planned.

The global pre-registration event is the first large-scale update since signing a publishing contract with the developer Peopleog on April 30th. It carries the ambitious goal of ‘challenging the global RPG market through sufficient content updates and localization strategies’ and is expected to bear the fruits of the strategic publishing cooperation between COWON and Peopleog.

This pre-registration event will be held in global countries including Korea, and as COWON’s first global launch in the second half of 2021, many rewards and various events are being prepared. Regarding fairness between the existing servers and the new global server launch, COWON’s Business Director Son Youngjun stated, “The existing servers and the global server will continue to receive the same service and content support,” alleviating concerns from some users.

The new content ‘Dragon Lair’ in the large-scale update accompanying the global server launch is a PvE content where players battle various types of dragons in the dragon’s hideout. Through expanded enhancements, it enables deeper character development and strengthening. Additionally, two newly added characters with distinct personalities from the existing ones are expected to further enhance the fun of ‘The Skull 2: Ma Wang Selection Battle.’

Furthermore, in terms of game convenience, system improvements and UI redesigns have been made so that users can adapt to the game more familiarly. The early gameplay and tutorial have been significantly strengthened so that even first-time players can easily understand and play the game.

Business Director Son Youngjun said, “As this is an excellent game quality and the first large-scale update, we are preparing with great care so that more users can enjoy it in the global market,” and added, “We hope for much interest and support in this pre-registration.”
