MARBLEX to shut Ni no Kuni: Cross Worlds token exchange Sept. 10, a week before the servers go dark

In Brief:

• MARBLEX is closing the MBX Station exchange for Ni no Kuni: Cross Worlds on Sept. 10 at 17:00 KST, ending the last conversion route for the game’s tokens.
• The current global servers, the official forum and the MARBLEX service for the game terminate Sept. 17 at 06:00 UTC.
• Netmarble already relaunched the title July 23 on a global unified server with every crypto and NFT system removed, and player progress does not carry over.

MARBLEX is closing the MBX Station exchange for Ni no Kuni: Cross Worlds on Sept. 10 at 17:00 KST, cutting off token conversion seven days before the game itself stops running.

“With a heavy leart, we announce the upcoming discontinuation of the game service and MBX Station exchange for Ni no Kuni: Cross Worlds,” MARBLEX said in the notice.

The current global servers, the official forum and the game’s MARBLEX service all terminate Sept. 17 at 06:00 UTC.

What holders have left

Players who still hold in-game resources have three days. Territe converts to Territe Token (NKT) and Asterite converts to Asterite Token (NKA), and both paths require a MARBLEX wallet linked to the game account. Anything left unconverted after MBX Station closes stays in a game that will no longer exist.

The exchange layer was never available in Korea. Netmarble shipped the global version in 2022 with the MARBLEX integration attached and kept the domestic Korean release free of it, so the shutdown removes a feature set that only international players ever had.

The relaunch already happened

Netmarble opened the new global unified service July 23 under the theme “One Universe, One Journey.” It carries no cryptocurrency and no NFTs, which brings the global build in line with the Korean one.

Characters don’t transfer. Everyone starts over, and the company has been explicit that the unified server is a new environment rather than a merge.

Compensation runs off a snapshot. Netmarble recorded the highest Combat Power on each account on July 2 at 06:00 UTC and tiered migration rewards against it, distributed through a program called CROWN FUND. Eligible players get CROWN FUND Tickets to spend in a dedicated shop, and expected ticket counts are listed on a reward checking page at ninokuni.netmarble.com/en/welcome.

Sales of paid items on the old service ended with the July 2 update. New-server catch-up systems include a guided mission track called Adventurer’s Journey and a Boosting Field dungeon that speeds the climb to Level 200.

Netmarble said it evaluated the future direction of operations and concluded it was difficult to keep providing a stable service experience under the current structure. The company said it looked at alternatives first and framed the decision as protecting players’ time and in-game currency. It has not called the crypto integration a failure.

What’s left of MARBLEX

Ni no Kuni: Cross Worlds was the flagship. MBX trades near $0.026 against a total supply of 321.28 million, and the Netmarble subsidiary has spent 2026 rebuilding around other titles.

MARBLEX launched Pixel Tamerz globally this year, an idle collection RPG from Returnpixel built on pixel art, deck-building and roughly 200 evolvable monsters. Its in-game currency, TZC, is exchangeable with MBX. The company announced DreamWorld, a sandbox MMO, for Steam Early Access in February, and it has been running an NFT collaboration on The Seven Deadly Sins, an IP owned by Kodansha.

There’s also a buyback and burn program committing 20% of net revenue from this year’s games to burning MBX. The Q2 2026 window, April 1 through June 30, burned 6,368 MBX.
