Players who pre-download will be able to jump into the game as soon as it officially launches, enhancing the excitement surrounding its release. Specific details regarding the launch time will be shared through official channels closer to the date.

Excitement Builds with Extended Events

The anticipation for LORDNINE has been heightened by Smilegate’s decision to extend the Character Name Reservation event, which began on July 14. This extension included the expansion of server capacities, allowing more players to participate. A live showcase in Thailand on July 20 introduced key game features and the development philosophy behind LORDNINE. During the event, popular Thai actor Peach Pachara was revealed as the game’s official global model, generating significant enthusiasm among attendees. The showcase video is available on the official LORDNINE YouTube channel.

The game features an innovative “Infinite Class” system, which allows players to combine over 60 classes and more than 50 abilities, enabling a highly customizable character creation process. This design provides players with the freedom to define their own combat style and character progression, fostering strategic depth in gameplay.

Global Marketplace and Continued Popularity

To enhance player interaction across global servers, Smilegate has partnered with LINE’s C2C trading platform, Next Market. This collaboration introduces a global marketplace system, enabling players to trade items safely and engage in cross-server economic activities. This feature is expected to further enrich the gaming experience and foster a vibrant community.

Since its launch in South Korea and the Taiwan region in July 2024, LORDNINE has gained notable traction, topping revenue charts in the RPG category on major platforms. The game was also honored with the title of “Best Immersive MMORPG” at the SensorTower APAC Awards 2024, underscoring its quality and commercial success.
