Nexon Mabinogi Mobile pre-registration campaign

Overview

Nexon has initiated the pre-registration phase for Mabinogi Mobile, an online RPG developed by devCAT that reimagines the original Mabinogi IP. The game, which features cross-play between mobile and PC platforms, is scheduled for a 2026 release in Japan following its successful launch in South Korea.

By late August 2026, pre-registrations surpassed 50,000 users. To mark this milestone, Nexon announced in-game rewards such as ‘Fashion Tickets’ for all players. The company is also conducting promotional campaigns linked to the Tokyo Game Show 2026, offering prizes such as event admission tickets and gift cards.

During the Tokyo Game Show 2026, Nexon is showcasing playable demos, including a zone that recreates the village of Tir Chonaill. Pre-registrations for Mabinogi Mobile have since grown to over 200,000 users, leading Nexon to announce additional rewards for when the count reaches 250,000.

At the Tokyo Game Show 2026, Nexon confirmed that Mabinogi Mobile will officially launch on October 7, 2026. Additionally, popular VTuber Higuchi Kaede from Nijisanji has been announced as a voice actress for the title. During the event at Makuhari Messe, Nexon reiterated the October 7 launch date and noted that pre-registrations have surpassed the 200,000 mark.

As the Tokyo Game Show 2026 continues at Makuhari Messe, Nexon is actively promoting Mabinogi Mobile alongside its new title, ‘Fareidolia’. The event has transitioned into public viewing days following business days that saw over 52,000 daily visitors. While the show featured a record 1,138 exhibitors, the final day on September 21 was cancelled due to the approach of Typhoon No. 25 to ensure safety.
