On April 27, Nmixx became the first K-pop girl group to throw the first pitch and perform at the Taipei Dome. On June 4, it was announced that Nmixx would be holding their first official fan meeting Nswer Vacation, on July 12 at the Korea University Hwajeong Gymnasium in Seoul. On September 15, JYP Entertainment announced that Nmixx's first studio album Blue Valentine would release on October 13, with the lead single of the same name. On October 14, it was announced that Nmixx would be embarking on their first world tour Episode 1: Zero Frontier, kicking off on November 29 and 30 at the Inspire Arena in Incheon. In November, the group was announced as headliners of the 2026 Viña del Mar Festival in February 2026, after attending the 2025 version and becoming the first ever K-pop group to perform in the festival.

On February 16, 2026, Nmixx became the first K-pop group to perform at the São Paulo Carnival, where they revealed a new song "Tic Tic", featuring Pabllo Vittar, announced on the following day to be released on February 26 as a digital single. On May 11, Nmixx released their fifth extended play Heavy Serenade, alongside the lead single of the same name, while the music video for the track "Crescendo" was pre-released on April 28. On July 31, JYP Entertainment announced that Nmixx would be making their Japanese debut on December 9 with the release of the album N=Mixx, which contains twelve tracks including Japanese versions of their previously released songs.

Gladys Yeo of NME described Nmixx as "vocal powerhouses", describing their vocal skills as "unparalleled" within their generation of K-Pop. Likewise, Mary Siroky of Consequence said that Nmixx "often" delivers "great vocal performances". Despite the praise towards their vocals, Nmixx's signature style of music, termed "Mixxpop" or "Mixx Pop" (stylized in all caps), was initially controversial.

Taylor Glasby of Dazed said that Nmixx's debut single, "O.O", had "choppy arrangement" and "loosely structured lyrics", making note of the fact that ten lyricists were credited for the track. Glasby wrote that the song created "the biggest ruckus of 2022 [...] across the entire breadth of the K-pop community". Lily said that the reception towards the song was "sometimes sad and hard to read about", but also stated that "mixed opinions are better than no opinions". Writing for Mnet Plus Magazine, Park Soojin said that Mixxpop was less accessible to the public due to "combining vastly different genres into a single song". Both Yeo and Park said that Nmixx's 2023 EP Expérgo offered a more public-friendly version of Mixxpop.

In September 2022, Nmixx were appointed global ambassadors of Spanish luxury fashion house Loewe. Before the announcement, they appeared on the July 2022 cover of Harper's Bazaar Korea in Loewe's Fall 2022 pre-collection. In December 2023, they modelled for the brand's Spring/Summer 2023 pre-collection campaign. In March 2023, they represented the brand in their attendance of Paris Fashion Week and Milan Fashion Week.

In July 2023, Nmixx became the muse of ReFa Heart Brush, a product by Japanese beauty brand ReFa, which was featured in their music video for "Party O'Clock". They collaborated with the brand in the digital cover of the August 2023 issue of Cosmopolitan Korea.
