Flyff & Wemade

[Jev]

Over the last few weeks it’s been made clear by various private server owners that Wemade (who purchased the publishing rights in 2022) are now sending DMCA/Cease and Desists letters to all Flyff Private server owners.

Hopefully we don’t see this extend over to our community with the Mir titles.

I would like to point out that I think all this has arisen because of Flyff Universe being a fairly recent global release.

Some history:

Original Release
• Developer: Aeonsoft
• First released: 2004 (South Korea)

Publishing History (Global)

Flyff became popular in:
• South Korea
• Japan
• Europe
• North America
• Philippines

International publishing was handled by:
• gPotato (NA/EU)
• Later by Webzen
• Various regional publishers in SEA

Original Studio

Flyff was developed by:
• Aeonsoft

Aeonsoft later became associated with:
• Gala Lab

Gala Lab continued development of Flyff for years.

WeMade’s Acquisition
In 2022, WeMade:
• Acquired a majority stake in Gala Lab
• Secured control over the Flyff IP
• Began integrating Flyff into its broader publishing ecosystem

Flyff Universe Relaunch

After the acquisition:

Flyff Universe
• Released 2022
• Built in HTML5
• Runs in browser (no client download required)
• Cross-platform (PC, mobile browser)
• Based on older “v7-v9” era Flyff mechanics

WeMade positioned this as:
• A nostalgic relaunch
• Globally unified service
• Modern monetization

Don't poke the bear -

Maybe if you stop trying to take every new asset they have on those **** new versions of mir they may leave LOMCN alone.

I’ve only released what was publicly accessible (even that was just links, not actual files)

No one on the forum has received any DMCA from wemade regarding Mir 1/2/3/4. (At least in recent times)

The only action I’ve had against myself was a copyright strike on my personal YouTube channel for posting 2 videos showing me playing Mir 5.

I think we’re pretty safe as we always have been considering how old Mir 2/3 are and a history of low enforcement.
