Pre-loading for The Ragnarok mobile is now open

South Korean publisher Gravity Game Tech, which released the first game of the legendary Ragnarok Online back in 2002, announced that its mobile version is ready for release on the market and launched pre-loading of The Ragnarok on smartphones in Southeast Asia. The game can be downloaded on Android and iOS through the pages of the corresponding mobile stores, and on PCs – through Google Play Games. The servers will be opened on the last day of October.

While the developer claims that Gravity Game Tech's primary goal was to bring the original Ragnarok Online experience to mobile devices as completely as possible, it is known that numerous changes have been made to the interface, graphics, and content. In particular, the team of 100 specialists has significantly updated the background, created new 3D models (although The Ragnarok focuses on 2D graphics), and optimized the classic game mechanics to adapt to smartphone controls.



Players will still be able to:

• hunt MVP monsters, among which new monsters will appear from time to time;
  
• complete quests in a group;
  
• take part in 50x50 PvP battles, which received a lot of positive feedback during closed beta tests;
  
• choose from 6 main classes and 12 subclasses;
  
• give your hero individuality with the help of over 500 classic costumes from the original;
  
• be involved in regular in-game activities and seasonal challenges.
  

There will also be support for autoplay, paid VIP levels with bonuses, and the quality of life of characters will be improved through trading systems. Overall, it looks like an attempt to preserve the basics of the original version, while bringing in fresh gameplay details and raising high expectations among fans. Players in the Asian region have already pushed the project to the first place in the Philippines App Store for adventures.

Going forward, the publisher plans weekly events and content updates.
