Nuverse announced that from April 23 to May 8, 202, the closed beta test for MMORPG Ragnarok X: Next Generation is now live for players in the Philippines, Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia, and Singapore on Android devices.
Ragnarok X: Next Generation is said to retain the familiar gameplay mechanics and systems of the Ragnarok franchise, it features 6 classes veterans will recognize - Swordsman, Thief, Acolyte, Mage, Archer, and Merchant. Each of the classes will come with 2 upgrade classes then 3 advancement stages.
This Ragnarok title’s main pull is it’s fully 3D world on mobile devices which sports the usual twin-joystick control scheme where movement is down at the lower left of the screen while skills and other actions are placed at the bottom right. Next Generation also features a 2.5D + #D double-perspective design as well as a weather system.

Players can also earn an extra rewards by participating in the Vending machine event on the pre-registration website. Players completing 100 draws will be rewarded an exclusive Elephant mount for the game.
Ragnarok X: Next Generation is already out on counties such as Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Macau since last year, and is expanding this year through Southeast Asia countries. No release date was give as to when it will officially launch in SEA.
Metaphor: ReFantazio is now my favorite title from the Persona team by far. It’s one of those rare games where its main pillars work harmoniously, and you get lost in its charm. It’s a pristine JRPG, with enough style and substance to satisfy hardcore JRPG fans, Persona fans, and even those who rarely touch JRPGs.
