Ragnarok Origin: A New Version of the Classic 2000s Game with a Different Free-to-Play Format and 3D Graphics
Ragnarok Origin, also known as Ragnarok Origin: ROO, has arrived in Brazil, bringing back the classic MMORPG that was popular in the 2000s, Ragnarok Online. The game is available for free on Android, iPhone (iOS), and Windows computers. In this new version, some gameplay elements have changed, but the structure of exploring the map and completing quests with other players in the community remains the same. Additionally, the game now features 3D graphics, a departure from the graphics seen in the original game. Read on for more details and information about Ragnarok Origin.
Platforms for Ragnarok Origin
The game has been officially released for Android, iPhone (iOS), and Windows computers. PCs with other operating systems are not supported, and at the moment, consoles are also not included, just like in the original game. In order to play, you will need a compatible device and enough storage space to download the game, which requires between 3 GB and 7 GB of available storage, depending on the version.
Is Ragnarok Origin Free?
Yes, Ragnarok Origin is free to play. The game can be enjoyed without spending any money, but like many free-to-play games nowadays, it offers in-app purchases for players who want to spend real money. You can unlock more customizations for your heroes, additional characters, pets, and other decorative items. These items are obtained through random draws using in-game currency earned through gameplay or purchased at various prices.
Additionally, Ragnarok Origin features an “energy” system, similar to other classic free-to-play games. If you run out of energy while completing missions, you will need to wait for it to recharge or purchase more energy with real money. So, in summary, this is a free game to download, install, and play, but with certain limitations.
Official Website for Downloading Ragnarok Origin
Many websites offer downloads for Ragnarok Origin, especially for PC and Android, with executable files and APKs. However, there is only one official website specifically for Latin America and Brazil. The official website for Ragnarok Origin: ROO is “https://lna.roglobal.com/”, without quotations. It is recommended to only download Ragnarok Origin from the official website.
Gameplay of Ragnarok Origin
Not much has changed in terms of gameplay compared to the original Ragnarok. The core gameplay remains the same. You still control your character using the keyboard and mouse on PC or touch controls on mobile devices. There are more menus and customization options, but they have little impact on actual gameplay. Additionally, the game still features an isometric view and open environments to explore.
Battles are in real-time with elements of turn-based combat. Players can choose to let the game automatically define their attacks or manually engage in battles. It all depends on personal style, preference, and available time to play.
What Has Changed? What Has Stayed the Same?
The main difference in Ragnarok Origin is the visual aspect, as it follows the technological advancements of recent years. But at the same time, there are other factors that have a greater impact on the player’s experience. The game features 3D graphics, albeit basic, intentionally designed to stay close to what was seen in the original game. Additionally, there are slight differences in the two gameplay versions mentioned above, but they are equally minor.
With Ragnarok Origin, the developer Gravity chose to make only minimal changes to maintain a familiar experience for those who played the original game, which is the main target audience for the new game. Nonetheless, even if you don’t have any experience with the series, you can still enjoy the game, as it has been modernized enough to not feel outdated.
Classes, Builds, and More
Ragnarok Origin offers six initial classes: Merchant, Archer, Swordsman, Acolyte, Thief, and Mage. Each class has at least two further advancements, depending on the player’s choice. It is recommended to read about each class and choose the one that suits your playstyle. For example, a Thief is a more fragile character who acts indirectly and avoids direct combat, while a Swordsman is more suited for those who enjoy fighting, and so on.
Players can also distribute points into six different stats at the beginning of the game: Strength, Agility, Vitality, Intelligence, Dexterity, and Luck. If you don’t want to manually allocate the points, there is an “auto-fill” button available to make it easier for those in a hurry. Finally, Ragnarok Origins features collectible pets that can perform tasks for the player. These pets can be unlocked starting at level 22.
