Kakao Games Holds 'Odin: Valhalla Rising' Taiwan Showcase... Launching on the 29th

[Asia Economy Reporter Seungjin Lee] Kakao Games announced on the 17th that it successfully held a local showcase ahead of the Taiwan service of the MMORPG "Odin: Valhalla Rising" (hereafter Odin), developed by Lionheart Studio.

At the showcase held on the 16th at the Mandarin Oriental Taipei, Kakao Games revealed the official release date of the local service, named "Odin: Shinban," as the 29th.

The event was attended by over 150 people, including local media, stakeholders, popular Taiwanese celebrity Oh Young-gyeol, and influencers.

Following the game introduction and announcements about the Taiwan service presented directly by Kakao Games and Lionheart Studio, various programs such as character costume events and on-site game battles were showcased.

Meanwhile, Kakao Games participated in the "Taipei International Game Show" with "Odin: Shinban" in January and conducted a closed beta test (CBT) at the end of February. The game’s graphics, production, story, and combat received favorable reviews during the CBT, leading to a surge in participants for the pre-registration character name and server reservation events, which resulted in additional servers being added.

Kakao Games is preparing the Taiwan service of Odin this year as part of its business expansion under the theme "Beyond Korea." Information about the Taiwan showcase of Odin, a cross-multiplatform game playable on both mobile and PC, can be found on the official Odin website and the Taiwan Odin Facebook page.
