  • Immortal garnered 10 million downloads in the first week after its international launch outside China on June 2.
  • After a month-long suspension, China resumed licensing in April, but Tencent and NetEase failed to win approval in the three batches of approved titles.
  • The update reflects relaxation in the Chinese regulatory environment as promised by the country lately.
  • Price Action: NTES shares traded higher by 4.68% at $98.60 in the premarket on the last check Thursday.
