Nexon America has unveiled that some of its free-to-play MMO's will be accessible through Valve’s leading online gaming platform, Steam.

Vindictus Nexon’s highly acclaimed real-physics-based MMORPG is available on the Steam platform, followed by Nexon’s global smash hit Dungeon Fighter Online and its high-intensity MMOFPS Combat Arms later in June.
"Nexon is a premier game developer and publisher," said Jason Holtman, Valve's Director of Business Development. "Their titles will be an excellent and welcome addition to the growing library of free-to-play titles on Steam."

Vindictus, known for bringing real physics to online MMORPGs with the modified Source Engine from Valve, will be the first Nexon game available on Steam. The newest update to one of Nexon America’s most acclaimed titles unleashed three monstrous dragons into its lands, where teamwork and brutal combat are the only way to defeat the beasts.

Dungeon Fighter Online has become one of the most popular MMORPGs worldwide with its colorful, 2-D world where players slash through dungeons in old-school brawler fashion. In tandem with its June Steam launch, Nexon America will introduce its highly anticipated male mage character update into “Dungeon Fighter Online,” delivering a new round of adventures to players.

Combat Arms which has more than 6 million registered players in North America, will be available on Steam later this month, coinciding with its “Spiders versus Scorpions” event, the biggest online FPS battle of the year. The “Spiders versus Scorpions” event pits tens of thousands of “Combat Arms” players against each other in a month-long war where the victors will claim great prizes and bragging rights.

“Providing our games on Steam is about making it as easy as possible for players to access our games,” said Nexon America CEO Daniel Kim. “Valve has been a great global partner to Nexon for many years, and this agreement continues the marriage of Nexon’s immersive content with Valve’s strong distribution channel and large player community. With Valve’s introduction of a free-to-play channel, there are now even more opportunities for our two companies to work together. In addition to now being able to access these best-in-class titles on the Steam platform, players will experience new updates, character introductions and special events along with each game’s launch.”
