SHANGHAI, May 24, 2024
/PRNewswire/ -- The9 Limited (Nasdaq: NCTY) (the "Company"), an
established Internet company, today announced that its wholly-owned
subsidiary China Crown Technology Limited ("China Crown"), a company incorporated in
Hong Kong, entered into an
exclusive publishing license agreement (the "License Agreement")
with Wemade Co., Ltd. ("Wemade"). Pursuant to the License
Agreement, China Crown will
exclusively publish and service the new MIR M game in mainland
China, in both Mobile and PC version. The game may include
blockchain technology in accordance with relevant PRC laws and
regulations, subject to further agreement between the parties. The
license term is 5 years from the commercial launch date and may be
