Nexon has announced a revised launch window for its highly anticipated post-apocalyptic action game, NAKWON: Last Paradise. The game is now set to release no earlier than 2027. This marks a significant shift from previous expectations, which had hinted at a 2026 debut or simply a vague “coming soon” tag.

This adjustment follows a recent Steam demo that generated considerable buzz, drawing in over 37,000 concurrent players. The successful playtest demonstrated that NAKWON: Last Paradise is already in a promising state, showing strong potential to compete in the current market. Despite its good standing, the developers have opted to dedicate additional time for further refinement and polish.

According to Nexon’s latest financial briefing, the decision to delay the game stems from a deep commitment to achieving the highest possible quality. Furthermore, the development team is now actively collaborating with Embark Studios, the renowned studio behind the successful extraction shooter ARC Raiders. This strategic partnership aims to leverage Embark Studios’ expertise to enhance NAKWON: Last Paradise and attract a broader global audience upon its eventual release.
