Daum Mobage Goes Live On iOS In Korea [Social Games]

D

It took them a while, but DeNA in Tokyo announced that Mobage on iOS launched in South Korea on Monday (note: I can only read the press release in Japanese, and there is no English version).

DeNA’s entry into Korea was first announced back in November 2011.

Just like in the case of Mobage’s English version, DeNA started the launch in Korea on Android first, in partnership with local web powerhouse Daum (in February this year).

As the first Mobage game on iOS in Korean, users in the iPhone-crazy country can download a localized version of ngmoco’s We Rule in the Korean App Store (that version has been available on Android since February).

In addition, Korean developers can now lay their hands on a Daum Mobage game SDK for iOS.
