If you've been keeping an eye on the Korean mobile gaming scene, you might have noticed the buzz around WeMade's eagerly awaited MMORPG, Legend of Ymir. The game has not only launched successfully in Korea but has also topped the charts on Google Play and pre-release on the iOS App Store. The overwhelming response has led WeMade to add another server to accommodate the growing player base.
To celebrate this milestone, WeMade is rolling out a series of in-game rewards for its dedicated players. Additionally, there's more news on the horizon regarding the integration of blockchain technology, which WeMade continues to invest in despite its waning prominence in mainstream gaming discussions.
Legend of Ymir blends Eastern MMORPG elements with a Norse-inspired setting and action-packed gameplay, which has clearly resonated with Korean players. This success raises the question: could an international release be in the works? Only time will tell.
Valhalla and beyond
Powered by Unreal engine, Legend of Ymir boasts stunning graphics, smooth gameplay, and high production values, positioning it as a next-generation mobile title. However, the persistent focus on blockchain technology serves as a reminder of the industry's past enthusiasm for such innovations, with many developers still trying to capitalize on them.
While the integration of blockchain into a potential global release remains a point of interest, it's crucial that it doesn't overshadow the anticipation surrounding Legend of Ymir. Fans worldwide are eagerly awaiting news of an international launch.
