       HONG KONG, April 22 (Reuters) - Chinese tech giant
Tencent Holdings  0700.HK  said on Monday that it will release
its much-anticipated "Dungeon and Fighter" mobile game on May 21
after seven years of development. 
    Officially named "Dungeon and Fighter: Origin", the action
game, developed by Korean firm Nexon  3659.T , is a mobile
adaptation of the "Dungeon and Fighter" computer game, one of
the world's most profitable computer games. 
    The game first came to light in 2017 when Tencent obtained
government approval for a release before its approval was
revoked. Tencent obtained a new license for the game this
February.
