Foreign online games to hit Korea - SC2 'expected' this year

A wave of U.S. and Japanese blockbuster online computer games will hit South Korea this year, threatening the long-run popularity of locally made games.

About a dozen foreign games, including Blizzard Entertainment's Starcraft 2 and Electronic Arts' Lord of the Rings Online are expected to begin service this year, dubbed in the Korean language. They will be competing with Korean games such as Lineage from NCsoft, Maple Story from Nexon and NHN Games' Dungeon & Fighter. (Lord of the Rings Online: Shadows of Angma, PC, Starcraft II)
