The new Ragnarok X:Rise of Taekwon is shaping up to be the greatest the franchise has ever been, featuring the same elements you’d expect from a Ragnarok Online game: Vast open worlds, in-depth job and skill systems, a massive variety of monsters to find and fight, and a myriad of quests and missions to complete in exchange for great treasures and rewards. 

Now, Ragnarok Online hardly needs an introduction at this point; it’s simply one of the most popular MMORPGs of the 2000s, which coexisted alongside other titans like Lineage 2, Aion, Tera, and Final Fantasy XI, among others. In fact, RO is still available to this day, though it’s popularity has all but waned at this point. Nevertheless, the franchise has been going strong in the mobile market, first with Ragnarok M: Eternal Love, which was released back in 2018, and now with the upcoming Ragnarok X: The Next Generation, which is launching in SEA later this week!

ROX is taking gamers back to Midgard but with an entirely unique presentation, taking the original 2D art style of the original game, as well as its combat style and rhythm, and realizing it perfectly in a fully 3D world. In this sense, ROX feels similar to the original, but with a fresh new coat of paint, which is always a welcome surprise. If you were, or still are, a fan of the original Ragnarok Online, then you’ll be pleased with the direction its latest instalment is taking.

However, as a mobile game, Ragnarok X suffers from several limitations, which are mostly unrelated to the game itself, but rather to the platform in which you’re supposed to play it. In a nutshell, gaming on your phone is convenient, but uncomfortable, and sometimes plain unfun. Gaming on a small screen and while having to use touchscreen controls might be great for passing the time, but it often makes us wish we were playing on our PC, on a big monitor, and with better controls. Luckily, this is what BlueStacks is all about.
