NIP Group Enters the MOBA Game Arena with Re: Aetatis, Accelerating Growth in Digital Entertainment

On December 20th NIPG announced the introduction of its first MOBA game: Re: Aetatis. This highly anticipated cutting-edge sci-fi MOBA mobile game began open beta testing on December 24, 2024, inviting players to experience the next evolution in competitive gaming.

Re: Aetatis marks NIP Group’s bold entry into the dynamic game publishing market and a major milestone for the Company's evolution from a top esports organization to a global digital entertainment leader. Following the launch of reservations, Re: Aetatis has garnered significant attention and recognition from players and is poised to become a flagship title in NIP Group's emerging game portfolio.

NIPG is pioneering a new approach to game publishing through “esportsification.” This process involves developing and transforming traditional video games toward competitive gaming, emphasizing the game's competitive nature, strategic depth, and entertainment value, as well as the professionalism and standardization of tournaments. Rather than just publishing a game, NIPG is able to publish, market, and create a whole ecosystem around the new game. This includes leveraging synergies across its business units, such as esports teams, event production, and talent management, to create a unified and engaging gaming experience.

Set on the technologically advanced continent of Aetatis, Re: Aetatis allows players to control “Intelligence” units in strategic 5v5 matchups. The game delivers a compelling MOBA experience with precise competitive mechanics, deep strategy and team coordination, all within a visually stunning environment inspired by cyberpunk aesthetics and an ACG-inspired world.

Following its official launch, NIPG plans to extend Re: Aetatis IP with esports tournaments, community-driven events, and potential IP collaborations, ensuring sustained player interest and continuous content evolution.

NIPG is actively diversifying its businesses across the gaming market and building on its core competencies in esports team operations, talent management services, and event production.

Strategic Partnership with The9 Limited

On November 26th NIPG and The9 Limited announced that NIP Group has entered into a strategic partnership with China Crown Technology Limited, a wholly owned subsidiary of The9, to develop “MIR M” into a competitive esports title. Together, both parties aim to create a game that embodies the characteristics of MIR M and is suitable for esports adoption.

China Crown secured the exclusive publishing license of “MIR M” from Wemade Co., Ltd. in China in May 2024. The game is the latest version of the classic game "MIR", including both mobile and PC versions. China Crown’s parent company, The9, listed on Nasdaq in 2004 and is one of China’s earliest online game developers and operators, known for successfully introducing multiple globally renowned titles to China, such as World of Warcraft and MU Online.

NIPG and The 9 will collaborate deeply across three key areas: in-game esports integration, esports tournament system development, and promotion and marketing. NIP Group will leverage its extensive esports experience, event production capabilities, and social media resources both domestically and internationally, in combination with the vast player base of the game soon to be released by The9, to expand the market jointly. In addition, they will build a highly commercialized tournament ecosystem centered around the game and provide extensive support for its global promotion. This includes creating a synchronized, comprehensive, and highly efficient esports marketing network that resonates with esports fans.
