WEBZEN today announced that the next expansion for its dark-fantasy MMORPG Rappelz will hit European and American servers on 19 March, 2019.
Rappelz Epic 9.6: The Siege of the Citadel will introduce new features and content for a continuation of the glorious Epic 9 saga.
The expansion will bring an entire new location to Rappelz: a citadel built on the ruins of the Rondo Arena, just outside the city of Rondo. Players will be able to besiege the Rondo Citadel once a week. Only guilds can participate in the Siege, independently from the level of their members, and rewards will be distributed based on how fast each guild completes the challenge.
9.6 will also mark the return of the classic pets, by adding a brand new creature along with its fixed set of skills. This will be the first one of the new Epic class. Also, guilds will finally be able to use guild buffs on their creatures.
Yet the biggest focus of this expansion is perhaps on class balance, with the rework of many important classes such as the Void Mage, Slayer and Templar, highly requested by the community. Lastly, additional changes will bring bug fixes, UI improvements, dungeon adjustments and much more.
Rappelz's upcoming expansion, The Siege of the Citadel, will go live after the weekly maintenance ends on 19 March (10:00 UTC).
