Webzen: Undervalued Asian Name?

The $US35m you mention for Huxley is not an upfront payment, most of it is guaranteed royalty payments that are payable if the game reaches certain milestones after launching such as a certain level of users. Like most games that The9 licenses the money payable upfront is not much at all but $US35m is a good headline for both parties.

I don't think it is even scheduled to launch in Korea until 2008 so it won't be in China until after that.
