## About NC America

## Company Overview

- **Headquarters**: Irvine, California, USA
- **Founded**: 1997 (parent company NCSOFT)
- **Founders**: N/A (NC America is a subsidiary of NCSOFT, founded by Kim Taek-jin)

## Core Business
- **Primary industry**: Computer Games / Digital Entertainment
- **Target customers**: B2C (global gamers), with a focus on MMORPG and live-service game audiences
- **Mission or purpose statement**: “To create a joy-filled world” by delivering games that entertain a globally connected audience.

## Products & Services
- **Lineage 2 / Lineage 2M**: Classic and mobile MMORPGs with dedicated player communities.
- **Aion**: A fantasy MMORPG known for its aerial combat and PvPvE gameplay.
- **Blade & Soul / Blade & Soul Neo**: A martial-arts action MMORPG; “Neo” is a visual and gameplay remaster targeting nostalgic players.
- **Guild Wars 2**: A critically acclaimed MMORPG with a focus on dynamic events and no subscription fee.
- **Project LLL**: An upcoming online shooter in development, aiming to expand into new genres.
- **Publishing & Investment**: NC America acts as a Western publishing hub for NCSOFT’s global titles, including recent investments in Moon Rover (first-person shooter), Vic Game Studios (RPG *Breakers*), and Mistil Games (third-person shooter *Time Takers*).

## Market Standing
- **Valuation/Market Cap**: Not publicly available for NC America specifically; parent NCSOFT has a market cap of approximately $2–3 billion (as of mid-2025, variable).
- **Key Metric**: NC America employs 29 people (LinkedIn, 2025), with 84.2% YoY headcount growth. Parent NCSOFT has 4,000+ employees globally.
- **Notable Investors/Partners**: Amazon Games (partnered for Western launch of *Throne and Liberty*); parent company NCSOFT is publicly traded in South Korea.
- **Growth Signals**: The company is expanding its Western footprint with a new Irvine office, investing in diverse game genres beyond MMORPGs, and planning to double down on live-service business in 2025. CEO Jeonghee Jin reports feeling “very optimistic” about the pipeline and a “rise” from the industry downturn.

## Competitive Advantages
- **Legacy IP & Community**: Decades-old franchises like Lineage and Guild Wars 2 have loyal, revenue-generating player bases—a durable moat in the volatile gaming industry.
- **Cross-Continental Bridge**: NC America uniquely bridges Western and Eastern MMORPG audiences, with deep experience in both markets.
- **Financial Backing**: Backed by a publicly traded parent company (NCSOFT) with a strong balance sheet and a history of long-term investment in game development.
- **Data & Live-Service Expertise**: Deep institutional knowledge of player behavior tracking and live-service operations, honed over 25+ years of running persistent online worlds.

## Strategic Focus
- **Diversifying Genres**: Moving beyond MMORPGs into shooters (*Project LLL*, *Time Takers*) and RPGs (*Breakers*) to reach broader audiences.
- **Western Expansion**: Under CEO Jeonghee Jin (former CEO of Pearl Abyss America), the company is investing in Western development studios and growing the Irvine office.
- **Live-Service Commitment**: Doubling down on live-service games despite industry risk, leveraging MMORPG pedigree and community management.
- **Nostalgia & Modernization**: Re-releasing remasters like Blade & Soul Neo to capture both classic fans and new players.

## Why Work Here
- **Culture**: Described as “innovative, creative, collaborative, and impactful,” with a focus on “making people in this world happier.” Teams are small (29 employees) and growing, offering high ownership.
- **Work Policy**: In-Office / OnSite at the Irvine, CA headquarters. No remote or hybrid options indicated for current openings.
- **Benefits**: Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision plans; 401(k) with company matching; discretionary bonus plans; short-term & long-term disability; life & AD&D; healthcare and dependent care FSAs; paid holidays, PTO, and parental/bereavement leave.
- **Engineering Culture**: Small technical team (3 people, 9% of workforce) working on live-service infrastructure and publishing tools—a chance to have outsized impact in a growing subsidiary.
- **Recent Openings** (as of mid-2025): Community Manager, Social Media Marketing Manager (Contract), Publishing Producer, Public Relations Assistant, Customer Service Specialist.
