What is ODIN: Valhalla Rising? The game from developer Lionheart Studio and publisher Kakao Games takes you into a world inspired by Norse mythology. You will visit places like Midgard, Jotunheim, Nidavellir, and Alfheim. You will encounter elves, giants, dwarves, and mythological beasts. And well-known figures like Odin and Loki play an important role in the lore.

You can choose from 5 classes:

• Sorceress: Uses spells to deal high area damage to many opponents. Can summon and control enemies. Available in Dark Wizard or Archmage variants.
• Warrior: Protects allies as Defender Tank but can also charge offensively into battle like a Berserker. Brings high survivability.
• Rogue: Deals high damage through physical attacks, especially to single targets. Can act from a distance with a bow (Sniper) or in melee (Assassin).
• Priest: Heals and supports allies as Saint but can also take on the role of tank or deal damage as Paladin.
• Shield Maiden: The youngest of the classes and available in Valkyrie (mobile melee fighter focused on protection) and Axler (attacks with a long-range axe and applies debuffs) variants.

The MMORPG offers a vast world without loading screens, numerous dungeons, and raid challenges with PvP battles involving two groups of 30 players each. Additional features like guild wars are set to follow later.

Due to its mobile roots, ODIN features an autoplay function. However, this is expected to be ineffective in various activities, such as fighting strong bosses whose area attacks should be dodged manually.
