NCSOFT Signs Distribution Deal with Animation Streaming Platform Laftel

The expansion of animation content through game-based distribution channels highlights a

key example of cross-industry convergence, offering meaningful insights into the diversification of

content delivery platforms and the utilization of offline cultural spaces.

South Korea’s leading game developer, NCSOFT has signed a content distribution agreement with Laftel,

a domestic animation streaming platform. Starting September 18, Laftel will provide over 3,800 titles of

animation content to NCSOFT’s NC Family Zone(NCFZ) internet cafés nationwide. NCSOFT also plans to run

various promotions in conjunction with this launch, aiming to transform its PC cafés into hybrid cultural

spaces that integrate gaming and animation. The collaboration reflects growing interest in synergy between

different content industries and the redefinition of offline entertainment venues.

♦ Content Convergence Strategy

This partnership exemplifies an advanced model of content convergence between gaming and streaming

sectors, offering a Korean-style blueprint for cross-industry innovation.

♦ Offline Distribution Diversification

By integrating animation services into PC cafés—a uniquely Korean offline platform—the project expands

traditional online distribution models and offers a novel approach to content access.

♦ Global Scalability

The fusion of gaming and animation has strong potential for global adaptation and may serve as a

reference case for future cross-border streaming and IP collaboration models.
