NC has taken over global operation of Throne and Liberty from Amazon Game Studios, bringing Steam, PURPLE, PlayStation and Xbox players into a unified service environment. According to Chosunbiz, NC completed the handover on November 11, 2026, with existing account information, character progress and owned items preserved. For Xbox players, however, continuing to play requires more than accepting a new publisher’s name.

A fantasy warrior and castle are paired with a gaming setup and cross-platform play graphics. Xbox players need the new NC app​

The game’s official transition FAQ specifies that Xbox players must install the new Throne and Liberty app published by NC. The previous application’s “Throne and Liberty AGS” name identified the existing Amazon-published app, not its replacement. Account data carries over to NC’s application.

The FAQ also says existing platform accounts remain usable. Players must accept NC’s terms and policies and complete any required account activation; the standard migration did not require a separate transfer request. Players who opted out were excluded from data migration.

Unified service does not mean universal progression​

Two distinctions matter before anyone switches platforms:

  • Cross-play: PURPLE, Steam, PlayStation and Xbox players can play together.
  • Cross-progression: Progression sharing is supported between Steam and PURPLE. Xbox and PlayStation retain independent progression.

The official FAQ also preserves existing regions and realms, while renaming “Japan, Oceania” to “Asia, Oceania.” This is service integration—not the disappearance of regional servers.

That distinction is the practical catch behind the “unified” label: playing alongside someone on another platform is not the same as taking your character there.

Support changes alongside the operator​

Existing Amazon support tickets do not transfer. The transition FAQ directs post-migration inquiries to NC customer service, so players should not assume an unresolved Amazon case has automatically followed their character.

Broadcast and boost event accompany the handover​

Chosunbiz reports that NC’s first post-integration broadcast is scheduled for November 12, 2026, at 10 a.m. Pacific Time, on the game’s official YouTube channel. It will introduce a new community manager and outline operational plans. A growth-support event also offers one character-boost “Jumping Pass” per account that logs in during the event period; the report does not specify its closing date.

NC says direct operation should connect development and live operations more closely and accelerate responses to player feedback. That remains a company objective, not a demonstrated result of the handover. For PC and Xbox players, the immediate priorities are clearer: use the correct application, understand the progression boundaries, and recognize that customer support now sits with NC.


Update: Additional details (November 12, 2026)​

Inven Global reports that the transition’s character-boost ticket instantly raises a character to level 60 and grants level 75 equipment. Players can then complete a short tutorial before joining others.

The outlet also specifies that players’ Lucent currency remains unchanged after the transfer.
