Ragnarok Origin Launches in Southeast Asia This Week, April 6

/

Gravity Game Hub announced that their upcoming MMO Ragnarok Origin will officially launch in the Philippines on April 6, 2023, on iOS, Android devices, and PC.

Ragnarok Origin is the latest MMO in the Ragnarok series where players can band together and defeat bosses, earn various rewards, and grind to enhance their character further through cards and gear.

In a press conference that occurred this week in the Philippines, Gravity Game Hub “emphasized their dedication to preserving the authentic environments and original artwork of RO, while also preserving the unique classes and cherished features of the PC game, such as AFK leveling and challenging MVPs.” 

“In addition, to emulate and enhance social interactions in the modern online world, ROO underwent a comprehensive revamp of its bonding system, aiming to help players discover like-minded partners, create a strong sense of community within the game, and promote personal growth.”

The MMO features a pet and mount system where players can earn “hundreds of adorable pets and mounts” during a player’s run through the game. 

Esports for Ragnarok Origin

For Ragnarok Origin, Gravity Game Hub plans to create a cross-server guild league, their way of entering Ragnarok Origin into the esports space. Ragnarok Origin will host four major esports events – the Odin Cup, Thor Cup, Loki, Cup, and Valyrie Cup. These competitions will take place in various cities, though they did not provide the date or timeline as to when these events will occur.

Ragnarok Origin has garnered a lot of attention in Southeast Asia as the pre-registration count for this free-to-play MMO is close to 10 million as of April 5, 2023.

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle has the potential to be a favorite for fans of the franchise, delivering an authentic Indiana Jones experience with its story and cinematic presentation. While the game shines in its exploration and puzzle elements, the combat and stealth mechanics’ lack of gameplay variety holds it back.

This will be music to the ears of kids who grew up on the series, but for the uninitiated, there’s nothing quite like the Mario & Luigi games. Mario & Luigi Brothership does its best to appeal to a wide range of players with charming presentation and a strong new Battle Plug system, but not everyone will be enamored with its reflex-testing gameplay.

Life is Strange: Double Exposure Review - A Nostalgic Return That Falls Flat

Life is Strange: Double Exposure brings back Max Caulfield with new time-manipulation powers, but struggles to capture the original’s emotional weight. While the dual-timeline mechanic is engaging, the story’s weak twists, forgettable characters, and technical issues hold it back. A nostalgic revisit, but not a standout entry in the series.
