NFUSION is a mobile game development company founded in 2016 by CEO Park Kyung-soo. The company is headquartered in Seoul, South Korea. NFUSION specializes in creating high-end, 2D role-playing games (RPGs) for iOS and Android platforms, distinguished by their use of full illustration animation, which brings high-quality, detailed 2D illustrations to life as playable characters.

The company's core technology enables the creation of high-quality animations from 2D illustrations while maintaining efficiency, a significant technical achievement. Their team consists of experienced professionals who have previously worked on successful RPG projects at major companies such as NCSoft, Nexon, and XLGames.
