Netmarble在2026年第二季度财报电话会议上宣布调整其多款新游戏发布策略，将2026年新游戏阵容从五款削减至三款，以聚焦运营效率和选择性投资。公司CEO Kim Byung-kyu承认上半年新游戏表现不及预期。财报显示第二季度营收7492亿韩元，营业利润801亿韩元，净利润2039亿韩元，海外收入占比78%。该策略调整可能影响游戏开发相关的电子元器件供应链，如服务器、GPU等需求。
- Netmarble在2026年8月5日的财报电话会议上宣布，将2026年新游戏发布计划从五款削减至三款，新游戏为Solo Leveling: Karma、Shangri-La Frontier: The Seven Colossi和Project Aegis。
- CEO Kim Byung-kyu表示，上半年发布的多款新游戏未能达到市场预期，因此公司调整策略，从多游戏发布转向聚焦运营效率和选择性投资。
- 2026年第二季度，Netmarble合并营收为7492亿韩元，营业利润为801亿韩元，净利润为2039亿韩元；营收同比增长4.4%，净利润增长27.3%，但营业利润下降20.8%。
- 营收增长归因于《七大罪：起源》的持续更新和新MMORPG《SOL: enchant》的初期贡献。
- 第二季度海外收入达5808亿韩元，占总销售额的78%，同比增长22.6%，环比增长13.4%。北美占39%，韩国占22%，欧洲占13%，东南亚占10%，日本占9%，其他市场占7%。

供应链影响
- Netmarble削减新游戏数量可能导致对游戏开发相关硬件（如服务器、GPU、存储设备）的采购需求减少，具体影响取决于其现有游戏的运营维护需求。
- 公司强调加强现有游戏运营，可能增加对数据中心和云服务的持续投入，从而影响相关电子元器件的长期需求。
- 海外收入占比高（78%），可能促使Netmarble在海外市场增加本地化服务器部署，进而影响区域供应链布局。
- 新游戏数量减少可能降低对高性能计算资源的需求，但若新游戏如《Solo Leveling: Karma》等需要高图形性能，可能仍会带动特定硬件需求。
- 公司追求盈利稳定性，可能更倾向于优化现有游戏，减少新项目开发，这可能影响游戏开发工具链和硬件升级周期。

Netmarble is revising its long-standing strategy of releasing multiple new titles each year, opting instead for a more focused approach centered on operational efficiency and selective investment in high-potential games.
Speaking during the company's earnings conference call on Aug. 5, Chief Executive Officer Kim Byung-kyu acknowledged that several new titles released during the first half of the year failed to meet market expectations.
"We pursued a strategy of driving growth through the launch of multiple games," Kim said. "However, the performance of our new titles in the first half fell short of expectations."
He added that the company understands investor concerns regarding the visibility of its growth outlook for the second half of this year and beyond 2027.
As a result, Netmarble has reduced its planned 2026 new game lineup from five titles to three. The company now intends to release Solo Leveling: Karma, Shangri-La Frontier: The Seven Colossi and Project Aegis during the second half of the year.
Netmarble reported second-quarter consolidated revenue of 749.2 billion won, operating profit of 80.1 billion won and net profit of 203.9 billion won.
Compared with the same period last year, revenue increased 4.4% and net profit rose 27.3%, while operating profit declined 20.8%.
The company attributed revenue growth to ongoing updates for The Seven Deadly Sins: Origin and the initial contribution from newly launched massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) SOL: enchant.
Overseas revenue reached 580.8 billion won during the quarter, accounting for 78% of total sales. International revenue increased 22.6% year over year and 13.4% from the previous quarter.
By region, North America represented 39% of revenue, followed by South Korea at 22%, Europe at 13%, Southeast Asia at 10%, Japan at 9% and other markets at 7%.
By genre, role-playing games accounted for 42% of revenue, casual games for 35%, MMORPGs for 17% and other genres for 6%.
For the first half of 2026, Netmarble generated cumulative revenue of 1.4009 trillion won, operating profit of 133.2 billion won and net profit of 414.8 billion won.
Compared with the same period last year, revenue increased 4.4% and net profit rose 72.5%, while operating profit declined 11.7%.
Going forward, the company said it will focus on strengthening the performance of existing live-service games while pursuing a more selective new-title strategy aimed at improving earnings stability and sustaining long-term growth.
