WEMADE (CEO Park Kwan-ho) has announced a major update for its MMORPG 'Legend of Ymir' scheduled for May. The update aims to provide new growth goals for players by introducing a new battlefield, hunting grounds, and set items.

On May 7, the new battlefield 'Sindri's Lost Treasure Island' will be added. This raid content features clan-based competition to secure treasure islands containing key resources, with battles taking place across five islands of varying sizes. Each clan must strategically choose an island that suits their strength to launch an assault.

Players can accumulate victory points for their clan by gathering resources and defeating monsters. Once a clan reaches 100% of the required points, 'Sindri's Lost Treasure Chest' will appear in the center of the island. All clan members must work together to fend off rival clans and destroy the chest to obtain special treasures.

On May 21, the new currency 'Blue Amber' and 'Set Items' will be unveiled. Players can obtain Blue Amber by dismantling rare equipment, which can then be used for equipment enhancement, crafting, and purchasing items in a dedicated shop. Set items provide additional effects when specific pieces are equipped together. Since effects vary by set, players can collect and combine items to suit their individual playstyles.

Additionally, a new hunting ground for high-level players, 'Lower Nest of the Ancient Dragon,' will be added. As a top-difficulty area featuring monsters between levels 90 and 100, it offers players the opportunity to earn large amounts of experience and obtain top-tier loot.

WEMADE will also host the '2nd Ymir Cup World Championship' this June. The Ymir Cup is an esports tournament based on 'Legend of Ymir's' core 'Server War' content. WEMADE successfully held the inaugural tournament in Singapore last February, which featured large-scale battles with up to 1,200 participants. The second tournament in June is expected to be even more intense, with a greater emphasis on character control, strategy, and teamwork.

'Legend of Ymir' plans to continue enhancing content quality and service stability by actively incorporating player feedback. Detailed information regarding the May update can be found on the official website.
