Kakao Games releases MMORPG Odin: Valhalla Rising globally

Kakao Games can officially announce that its free-to-play, open-world MMORPG Odin: Valhalla Rising has launched worldwide on PC and mobile. Experience the epic world of Nordic mythology in Odin: Valhalla Rising, a seamless open-world adventure developed by Lionheart Studios and published by Kakao Games that initially launched in Korea in 2021 and dominated the Korean Google Play Store charts for 17 weeks.

Players can choose from four distinct classes (Warrior, Sorceress, Priest, Rogue) and explore multiple regions rooted in Norse legend, including Midgard and Jotunheim. The design team pursued a bold and unrestrained artistic direction in order to draw players deeper into the rich lore of Nordic mythology. Odin: Valhalla Rising offers players battles on a massive scale, something not easily achieved in mobile MMORPGs. 

 

Built on best-in-class graphics, Odin: Valhalla Rising features a range of competitive and cooperative gameplay modes, including the 30 vs 30 Battle of Valhalla, large-scale co-op battles, and challenging group dungeons and boss raids. Future updates will further expand the game with content such as guild wars.

 

Si-woo Lee, CBO at Kakao Games, said: “We put a lot of effort into bringing the experience gained from launching in Korea three years ago into the global version. Thanks to this, as well as the multiple tests we ran during development, we believe the global version of Odin: Valhalla Rising will offer an even smoother and more flexible gameplay experience.”

 

Nam-ho Kim, Creative Director at Lionheart Studio, said: “We want players to enjoy the thrill of cooperation as they work together and the competition as they continue to grow their characters, diving deeper into Odin: Valhalla Rising’s extensive content through hunting, collecting, and crafting. We’ve approached the design of avatars, weapon skins, and mounts to be in a distinct style, and we hope players enjoy what we’ve created for them.”

 

The anticipation around Odin: Valhalla Rising’s global launch led to significant interest among content creators. The newly launched Partner Creator Program was set up to help these influencers make content for the game across multiple platforms, including YouTube and Twitch. So far, about 1,000 creators have signed up to the Partner Creator Program.

 

To celebrate the global launch, a special in-game event will run until the scheduled maintenance on May 29. Players will be rewarded with a variety of in-game items based on their level rankings, including a Legendary Mount Summoning Ticket and other summoning tickets. Additional community events will also take place through official channels such as Facebook and Discord.

 

Odin: Valhalla Rising’s Key Features:

  • Best In Class: Experience battles on a huge scale and a wealth of game modes with incredible graphics, changing into a hero worthy of Nordic legends as one of four class types - Warrior, Sorceress, Priest, and Rogue.

  • Seamless Exploration: Immerse yourself in a vast open world inspired by Norse mythology, allowing for uninterrupted exploration without loading screens outside of instanced dungeons, whether on mobile or on PC.
