The short answer
This is a charge for an NCSoft game, such as Guild Wars 2, Lineage II, Aion, or Blade & Soul.
Why am I seeing this charge?
A charge from NCSOFT (or DRI*NCSOFT) indicates a purchase made directly from the NCSoft store. This usually involves buying expansions, in-game currency (like NCoin or Gems), or subscription time for their MMOs, which include Guild Wars 2, Lineage II, Aion, and Blade & Soul.
NCSoft sometimes uses Digital River as a payment processor, which is why 'DRI' may appear on your statement next to the name.
Mobile game charges
If the descriptor reads 'GOOGLE *NCSOFT' or 'APPLE.COM/BILL NCSOFT', the purchase was made in one of NCSoft's mobile games, such as Lineage M. These transactions are handled by the respective app store, not directly by NCSoft's billing department.
Unrecognized charges
If you suspect the charge is fraudulent, you should contact NCSoft Support first with the date, amount, and the last 4 digits of your card. Disputing the charge with your bank without contacting support may lead to the permanent termination of the game account.
