Beloved Fantasy Life MMORPG Continues to Thrive Nearly Two Decades After Launch

LOS ANGELES – March 19, 2026 – Nexon America today announced the start of Mabinogi's 18th Anniversary celebration, marking nearly two decades of fantasy adventures with its passionate global community. To commemorate the milestone, Mabinogi is rolling out three weeks of exciting in-game events, special rewards, and community-driven stats revealing key player milestones that highlight the game's continuous growth and enduring appeal.

Since its North American debut in 2008, Mabinogi has built a vibrant and loyal community of players dedicated to its ever-evolving world. One standout example is the game's longest-active player, who has been adventuring since March 2008 and has reached a cumulative level of 1,000,000. Other players who exhibit Mabinogi's spirit of adventure, creativity, and community include an in-game fashionista showcasing chic outfits, a community artist named Fadingjade, who has hand-drawn over 1,400 portrait sketches of fellow players she has encountered in-game, and a couple who met in-game in 2010 and got married last year with a Mabinogi-themed wedding. To celebrate all of our incredible players, the Mabinogi team shared community-driven statistics collected over the years, including:

• Over 13 Million total Rebirths across all players
• Over 15 Million items sold in the Auction House
• Over 900 Thousand total player Titles earned

• Most Trained Skills: 1. Counterattack, 2. Production Mastery, 3. Defense

These insights showcase how players have shaped the Mabinogi world over 18 incredible years; a true testament to the creativity and connection that define its community.

In addition to the community-driven stats reveal, players can look forward to Mabinogi's 18th Anniversary celebration kicking off today, with three weeks of in-game festivities, exclusive rewards, and surprises. The main event, “A Gift of Mysterious Magic,” runs through Thursday, April 9 and invites players to meet Leath in the Library of Secrets for a special story questline. Along the way, players can enjoy mini-games hosted by Booksprites and earn milestone rewards through daily, weekly, and achievement challenges.
