WEBZEN released today the 5.0 update of its real-time mobile MMORPG MU Origin.
The latest update to MU Origin brings new content including a massive Force War event, Immortal Shield system, Pet Awake system, Grim Cave map, Ritual of Earth event, and more.
First of all, Force War, a massive PvP capture the flag event, has been added to the game. Force War will run every Saturday from 19:00 to 19:30. Players can dive into one of five battlefields to fight alongside their force. With seven points across each battlefield to occupy, players will be squabbling with rival forces to place their flag at each point ? the more they capture, the higher their capture rate, and the more likely they are to win the bigger rewards.
With this new update, Immortal Shield, a new defense system is now available after completing Fracture in the main quest at Rebirth 10 Level 20. Immortal Shield is a hugely powerful upgradable shield that protects players from enemy attacks. Immortal Shield has various attributes, including durability and absorption rate, and players can enhance these with Unbound Diamonds, Immortal Essence and Immortal Jewels.
The Pet Awake system allows players to enhance their Pets' Elemental options, which opens after completing Seeking Peace in the main quest, again at Rebirth 10 Level 20. There are three types of Pet Awake: Light, Fog and Frost. They are all upgradable using the corresponding Essences, and they all enhance their pet’s elemental abilities.
MU Origin also comes with a new all-server area for Rebirth 15, called Grim Cave, and a new ritual event called Ritual of Earth.
Furthermore, the 5.0 update will include numerous fixes and tweaks, from improvements to the chat system to new achievements.
With the arrival of the 5.0 update and in celebration of the annual holiday, the MU Origin team has prepared a series of special events such as login rewards, special promotions, daily log-in event, and a Christmas day log-in event for even more rewards including free Costume and Footprint Costume.
