Ragnarok Online is now fully Free 2 Play

The VIP System has Launched!



No more monthly subscriptions are necessary to access your game characters, regardless of what server you play on!



All servers are being set on the "default" rates for EXP, Monster Drops, Penalty on Death, and Storage, and upgrade chances. To enhance these beyond the "default" we have a VIP package you can purchase from the WarpPortal and apply to a specific Game account. With that VIP package active you will get 150% EXP, Drops, Death Penalty reduced to 1% and 600 Storage. Additionally you will be able to create more characters, up to the limit of 9 per server.



With the VIP system in place NPCs like the Kafra gals and EXP giving quest NPCs will notice your VIP status and offer special benefits like discounted Warp prices, more warp locations and of course more reward from quests.



The VIP package is 700 WP for 30 days, with longer packages at a discounted per day rate. And of course those benefits effect the account on All servers.



We are also opening Brasilis today as well! So be sure to bring your friends and explore Brasilis.



They've adapted a premium subscription model now. So you can choose to play for free at the cost of nothing. Hopefully this breathes life back into a fun game.

Interested? Play Ragnarok.

    Yeah, it's so awesome! And may I say, about damn time! xD

    I have really missed playing this game, even though it's old it's such a good game. It's even better now than before, you level faster and get gear right from the start. There are even quests nowadays that give a decent amount of experience and will keep you busy while grinding mobs.

    I hope more people will join up! Yggdrasil server needs more players! ^^
