The Yonhap News Agency portal has today reported that Ntreev Soft is going out of business on 15th February 2024:
“NCSoft’s subsidiary Ntreev Soft, which developed the mobile game ‘Trickster M’, is taking steps to close its business. According to the gaming industry on 4th January, NCSoft has decided the day before to liquidate Ntreev Corporation as of February 15th and has notified its 70 employees about their resignations.
The mobile multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) ‘Trickster M’ and the baseball game ‘Professional Baseball H2’ and ‘H3’, developed and operated by Ntreev, will also be terminated.”
Same news on the japanese 4Gamer.net and Gamespark portals, where they mention Ntreev as developers of Pangya:

Gamespark’s article ends with a claim that, due to Ntreev’s demise, PangyaM won’t be developed anymore. It turns out that PangyaM is actually developed by NCSoft JP and not Ntreev, so its development should remain unaffected by Ntreev’s closure.
