NetEase Games (网易游戏) : China's major game publisher spanning mobile MMOs, PC blockbusters and overseas hits.

NetEase Games is the gaming arm of Chinese internet firm NetEase, publishing PC and mobile titles for over two decades; with Tencent it ranks among China's top two game companies.

Its lineup runs from the MMO Fantasy Westward Journey to anime-style Onmyoji and battle royale Knives Out, blending free-to-play and premium releases.

Naraka: Bladepoint reaches worldwide players on Steam, while Identity V runs dedicated international servers. Overseas access usually uses separate English editions, not the Chinese client.

How is NetEase different from Blizzard's own servers?

NetEase operated Blizzard games in China from 2008-2023. China players accessed WoW and Overwatch through NetEase's servers, not Blizzard's global servers, with different patch schedules and pricing.

Can I play NetEase games from the US?

NetEase publishes global titles like Naraka: Bladepoint and Identity V on Steam, accessible worldwide. China-only MMOs like Fantasy Westward Journey require a Chinese ID and phone number for registration.
