SEOUL, KOREA – Devkorea (www.devkorea.co.kr), a portal for Korean game developer communities, carried out a survey of 1,242 Korean game developers to find out the best game development studios in Korea. On January 31, Devkorea announced Softmax as the winner.
The survey, conducted for four days from January 18 through 22, took into consideration a wide range of factors including product perfection, employee benefits, technological prowess, corporate visions, development processes, etc. Nexon ranked second, followed by NCsoft, Sonnori, devCAT studio, Wemade Entertainment, Com2uS and Neople.
Since its inception in 1994, the No.1 company Softmax, has launched over 35 games such as Lychnis, Spiral Genesis, Talesweaver, Magna Carta, SD Gundam Capsule Fighter and Dungeon Fighter Live. A Davekorea official said, “The survey showed that Korean game developers put a higher premium on whether the company makes extra efforts to understand game developers and provide an employee-friendly environment rather than the company’s finances and employee perks.”
