With Odin: Valhalla Rising, Kakao Games, publisher of the MMORPG Black Desert, brings the next online RPG with stunning graphics. And this is despite the fact that it is a mobile game that will also be released for PC.
What is Odin: Valhalla Rising? The MMORPG is based on Norse mythology. You travel to places like Midgard, Jotunheim, Niflheim, and Alfheim in a vast open world. There, you fight monsters and giant trolls. The MMORPG Odin: Valhalla Rising uses Unreal Engine 4 and looks stunning for a mobile game. It is also set to be released for PC. This is partly due to the animations that are added using motion capture technology.
- There are currently four confirmed classes: Warrior, Rogue, Priest, and Sorceress, with the Holy Trinity of Tank, Damage Dealer, and Healer in play
- PvP battles play a role
- You enjoy great freedom of movement and can climb and swim
- With mounts, it is even possible to fly
- The scenario somewhat resembles The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
An Impressive MMORPG
Who is releasing the MMORPG? Kakao Games has secured the distribution rights for Odin: Valhalla Rising from the Korean developer studio Lionheart Studio. The online game is set to be launched first in South Korea. A PC version is also planned according to the trailer.
What does this mean for a release here? There has been no official statement yet regarding a release of Odin: Valhalla Rising in the West. However, Kakao Games is known for offering games internationally, such as Black Desert Online. It is also said that the MMORPG is set to be released first in South Korea, which implies that further releases in other regions are planned afterward.
Therefore, the chances for a release in Europe and the USA are quite good.
What does the game look like? The developers have released a new trailer that shows more of the game than the last video. There are now battles visible at the end. These appear to be extremely fast-paced and action-packed.
Particularly impressive are the gigantic monsters that appear in the video. Moreover, the graphics overall make a fantastic impression. One could hardly believe that Odin: Valhalla Rising is also a mobile game. The characters are extremely detailed, the world invites exploration, and the city is bustling with activity.
Now it is time for us to learn more about the gameplay itself. Because exactly how Odin: Valhalla Rising plays as an MMORPG is still unclear.
