Dynamis One is investigating development materials leak allegations related to a Nexon Games project
According to a report by ChosunBiz, the Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency’s Industrial Technology Security Investigation Unit recently raided the headquarters of Dynamis One in Seocho-gu, Seoul, seizing evidence and related materials.
Dynamis One is a South Korean game company founded by former core developers from Nexon Games who contributed to the creation of the anime-style RPG, Blue Archive. It was established in April 2024, by CEO Park Byeong-rim, Scenario Writer Yang Joo-young, Art Director Kim In, and others.
In September of the same year, they unveiled Project KV, a nostalgia-themed school action title. However, it faced major backlash for its major similarities to Blue Archive, including its world-building, art style, and visuals, and was canceled just a week later.
Regarding the ongoing investigation, police have gathered evidence suggesting key officials have illegally exported development materials for an undisclosed project, MX Blade, which was being developed at Nexon Games’ MX Studio around 2021, during their departure from the company.
