1. What is AION 2 Mobile?
AION 2 Mobile is the mobile version of NCSoft’s new MMORPG, built with Unreal Engine 5 and set in the same universe as the original Aion, but with a modern focus on:
- Fast and fluid combat with skill chains and combos.
- Exploration in a huge open world with free flight in many areas.
- PvE and PvP content: dungeons, world bosses, arenas and large-scale faction wars.
- Deep character progression: gear with RNG stats, builds and upgradable skills.
AION 2 is designed both for short mobile sessions and long farming marathons. There are assist options for combat against normal mobs, but the game keeps manual control for bosses, PvP and challenging content, where player skill still matters a lot.
2. AION 2 Mobile release date (Korea & Taiwan)
NCSoft announced that AION 2 officially launches in South Korea and Taiwan on November 19, 2025 for both Android and iOS devices.
This initial rollout works as a regional launch to fine-tune performance, balance and servers before the global release.
Right now, the situation looks like this:
- Korea & Taiwan: official launch on 19/11/2025.
- Global version: planned for 2026 (no confirmed date yet).
Meanwhile, many players from all over the world are already joining the Taiwanese and Korean servers using regional accounts and specific download methods, which we’ll explain step by step below.
3. AION 2 Mobile system requirements
NCSoft has not yet published an official list of mobile requirements, but based on the type of game and its visual quality, these are reasonable values for AION 2 Mobile to run properly:
Minimum requirements (to “just” run the game)
- Operating system: Android 8.0 or later / iOS 12 or later.
- RAM: 4 GB.
- Storage: at least 5 GB free space.
- Processor: Snapdragon 636 / Apple A10 or better.
Recommended requirements (smooth experience)
- Operating system: Android 10 / iOS 14 or later.
- RAM: 6 GB or more.
- Storage: 7–10 GB free.
- Processor: Snapdragon 855 / Apple A12 or better.
If your device is close to the minimum specs, it’s a good idea to lower in-game graphics settings (resolution, shadows, textures) to avoid FPS drops and random crashes, especially in crowded areas or large-scale PvP.
4. How to download and install AION 2 Mobile (iOS, Android & APK)

6. AION 2 Mobile FAQ (frequently asked questions)
Can I play AION 2 Mobile from any country?
Yes, but officially there are only servers in South Korea and Taiwan for now.
For the rest of the world, players will need to wait for the global release in 2026 or use regional accounts and download methods like the ones explained above.
Do I need a Korean or Taiwanese phone number?
In Taiwan, mobile players are generally not required to provide a local phone number.
In South Korea, some services — especially on PC — may ask for additional verification, although in many cases it’s still possible to use an international email depending on NCSoft’s policies at the time of registration.
Is my mobile progress shared with the PC version?
Yes. AION 2 was designed as a cross-platform game.
If you use the same account (NC / Google / Apple) on both PC and mobile, your character, progress and items are shared across both platforms.
Does AION 2 Mobile have auto-combat?
The game may offer light auto-combat assistance for basic mobs, but important content (bosses, PvP, difficult dungeons) is designed to be played with manual control, keeping the challenge and sense of achievement.
Does the current client have an English language option?
The initial Korean and Taiwanese clients focus on their local languages, but AION 2 is getting a lot of international attention. It’s very likely that the future global client will include English and other major languages as the worldwide release approaches.
As NCSoft publishes more information about the global version, events and balance changes, this guide can be updated with more specific steps for each region.
For now, if you want to start your adventure as early as possible, the Korean and Taiwanese versions are your main gateway into the world of AION 2 Mobile.
