NC's 'AsOra' Booth Draws 30,000 Visitors at TGS 2026

NC (Co-CEOs Taek-jin Kim and Byung-moo Park) has successfully wrapped up its participation at Tokyo Game Show 2026 (TGS 2026) with its Shindenki magic RPG Astrae Oratio (hereinafter AsOra, developed by Dynamis One), drawing the attention of approximately 30,000 local attendees.

Celebrating its 30th anniversary this year, Tokyo Game Show 2026 (TGS 2026) was held from September 17 to 20 at Makuhari Messe in Chiba Prefecture, Japan. NC (Co-CEOs Taek-jin Kim and Byung-moo Park) presented a dedicated AsOra booth featuring the game's first playable demo, offering visitors a "scenario screening" that showcased the early storyline. In addition, a demo zone was set up to allow players to directly try out core content such as "Scenario Mode" and "Battle Mode."

Throughout the event, a total of 30,000 visitors flooded the NC booth, creating massive crowds. In particular, on September 19, when public admission began, wait times reached the organizer-set maximum limit of 120 minutes, drawing huge crowds to the point where queue lines were temporarily restricted. The supply of limited-edition merchandise distributed to demo participants and event attendees on-site also sold out early, proving the game's passionate popularity.

Originally scheduled to run through September 21, Tokyo Game Show 2026 (TGS 2026) concluded early on September 20 due to the aftermath of a typhoon. In consideration of visitors who attended but were unable to enter, NC urgently expanded its demo space on September 20, while hosting an "online scenario screening" on its official YouTube channel on September 21 to console disappointed fans. NC plans to reflect user feedback gathered from this event and the upcoming global CBT to further polish the game, accelerating development with the goal of an official release next year.
