What this shows Nexon's Innovation Score is 51.1/100 (top 12% of the PatentsView-derived corpus). The chart places that score against the nearest Innovation Score peers plus corpus poles, not a reprint of the volume ranking.

Does more volume mean deeper claims for Nexon?

Each dot is one of Nexon’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). Nexon’s own 17.5 claims/patent is ABOVE the 14.4 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Nexon's grants concentrate

Nexon Korea Corporation is a focused PatentsView assignee: 9 CPC subclasses with 82.4% of grants classified under A63F (Card, Board, OR Roulette GAMES; Indoor Games Using Small Moving Playing BODIES; Video GAMES; Games NOT Otherwise Provided FOR). Peak complete grant year is 2023 (5 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2015. By volume, Nexon sits between Neuro Kinetics, Inc. and Ningbo Jinghui Opto-electronic Co., Ltd..

Nexon's three-year grant acceleration

Nexon Korea Corporation shows 12 grants in 2022–2024 against only 2 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
