Global game company Gravity officially launched its new MMORPG, 'Ragnarok M: Classic,' in Korea on the 16th.

Gravity is releasing Ragnarok M: Classic on both mobile and PC. The mobile version is available for download on Google Play and the Apple App Store, while the PC version can be played by installing the client from the official website.

Ragnarok M: Classic is a successor to the MMORPG 'Ragnarok M: Eternal Love.' It inherits the original's early service direction by simplifying content and growth structures, allowing players to enjoy the game through basic activities like item farming. The game features an economy centered on 'Zeny,' the basic in-game currency, significantly reducing monetization pressure. Additionally, a monthly card providing various benefits, such as headgear and buffs, is provided for free.

The game also retains the classic job system of the original, allowing players to focus on character development, equipment enhancement, and card collection. Complex late-game growth elements that require significant time to acquire—such as ancient equipment, artifacts, and runes—have been removed in favor of a more intuitive and streamlined growth structure.

Gravity held a user meeting for Ragnarok M: Classic on July 12, fostering communication between the development team and players to build trust in future operations. The event addressed questions about the title, facilitated the exchange of feedback and opinions, and offered various activities including a trivia quiz, lucky draws, and an event zone.

During the domestic Closed Beta Test (CBT) held last June, the game received positive feedback, with players noting that 'the Zeny-centered economic system is well-structured, making it possible to play without the burden of spending,' 'the monthly card provided for free offers sufficient value,' 'the game illustrations and video quality are excellent,' and 'the inclusion of classic Ragnarok job classes makes it easy to focus on character growth.'

Gravity has also prepared various events to celebrate the domestic launch. First, the drop rate for the MVP Valter card will be increased by 10 times until July 30, and completing event missions, such as clearing Chaos Dungeons, will grant rewards like Heaven Flower Shards. Completing event missions for 60 days after character creation provides opportunities to unlock desired MVP cards, and upon reaching 100 unlocks, players can obtain one of the MVP cards they have unlocked. Additionally, players can participate in events related to reaching certain levels, unlocking headgear, unlocking cards, achieving refinement milestones, and clearing dungeons.

Jung Jin-hwa, Project Manager for Ragnarok M: Classic at Gravity, stated, "We would like to thank our domestic users for waiting for the official launch. This title was designed to allow players to enjoy the pure fun of adventure without any pressure, and we have further enhanced the quality of the official launch version by incorporating the feedback received during the CBT." He added, "We will continue to provide excellent service by actively communicating with our users even after the launch. We ask for your continued interest in Ragnarok M: Classic."
