Nexon said Sunday its latest mobile role-playing game V4 will be a turning point in the market with increasing fans of the seamless combating experience enjoying duets on its unique server system.

Standing for “Victory For,” V4 is a classic MMORPG with characters whose looks can be customized.

Since its launch in November, the game has topped game rankings by revenue. On Nov. 9, it rose to become the bestselling app on Apple’s App Store, and as of Sunday, it was in third place on Google Play.

Among new mobile games, V4 ranked first in terms of the average time users play per day, at 6.24 hours.

V4’s special feature is that it has an inter-server system, allowing players on five different servers to meet in combat.

The system provides a stabilized gaming environment, allowing players to enjoy seamless conditions for battles, according to the company.

Another differentiating feature is the exchange market, where players can negotiate prices of items that they need to sell and purchase via chatting. The prices are set entirely by players with no limits.
