The game faithfully reproduces the unique controls and combat excitement of the original on mobile devices. It also emphasizes community features such as group hunting (party play) utilizing distinct job characteristics, open chat rooms, and group chat rooms.
As it was developed based on Nexon's long-standing game, the number of pre-registrations reached 1.9 million, attracting attention even before launch. To celebrate surpassing 1.9 million pre-registrations, Nexon plans to additionally provide "100,000 Geumjeon" as a token of gratitude. Furthermore, players who reach level 5 in the game will receive a game item coupon usable in one of 13 Nexon online games, including "MapleStory," "Sudden Attack," and Baram-ui Nara.
