$NetEase (NTES.US)$ Opened more than 4% higher, as of the time of writing, up 4.8%, reported at 148.4 Hong Kong dollars, with a transaction volume of 0.345 billion Hong Kong dollars.

On the news front, according to market information on January 9th, NetEase's martial arts game "Yanyun Sixteen Sounds" has officially launched on mobile without a data wipe, with server maintenance starting at 6:00 and expected to be completed around 10:00. According to the official introduction, the official mobile version of "Yanyun Sixteen Sounds" will synchronize data with the PC version. The official revealed that the mobile version retains martial arts action and combat interactions, but the mobile team has optimized it for portable device operation habits, reducing the number of buttons for combat actions and offering convenient options like "skill assistance." In the future, the game will gradually unlock more advanced operational options for the mobile version, such as the mobile skill panel HUD, which will also unlock custom settings later. Future PVP matchmaking will be conducted separately on both platforms without mutual influence.

It is worth mentioning that Goldman Sachs released a research report stating that in the coming months, NTES-S is expected to achieve accelerated revenue growth compared to the third quarter, and the performance outlook for 2025 will be clearer. The firm believes that the release of these new games will further drive strong growth in the PC Business, especially following Blizzard's return in August 2024. The firm expects that as more games (including "Marvel Showdown," "Fragpunk," and other games exclusively published by NetEase) are released globally, NetEase's Global game sales will also surge significantly in 2025.
