Ragnarok V: Returns is the sequel to 'Ragnarok: Valkyrie Uprising,' which has been played by more than five million global users in 150 countries over eight years since May 2012. Developed by Gravity Neocyon, this multi-platform MMORPG will be published by Gravity.

The game begins with our heroes on a quest to bring back Baldur, the God of Light, in order to stand up against the gods bent on ending mankind after a thousand years of Holy War. In each episode, users can enjoy cinematic scenes as if in an animated film. The unique charms of Ragnarok and modernized graphic elements, such as the terrain and characters, updated selective quests and open world concepts at later levels, make this game not only fun, but help to differentiate it from other MMORPGs.

On the Facebook page, users can win various benefits by participating in the costume selfie event and level certification event.

A Gravity official said, “Through the first CBT, we will identify the needs of users in Oceania and apply them to the game. It will be followed by pre-registrations in March and the second CBT and official game launch in April. Gravity is dedicating the utmost effort to provide a game that will further increase users’ satisfaction levels. So, we ask for the users’ interest and participation.”
