New English FLYFF Server Coming on 6th of December!
-
WEBZEN has announced the opening of "Meteonyker", a new European server for manga & anime MMO game FLYFF ? Fly For Fun.
FLYFF is a high-flying fantasy RPG with over 60 million registered accounts worldwide. Meteonyker will be the second FLYFF European server for English speakers after the launch of Clockworks two years ago.
FLYFF players were introduced to a new European server in late 2014, when Clockworks was announced for the first time. English-speaking players finally had their own dedicated server, and many switched from the US server for a more time-friendly and smooth experience.
Clockworks (which is celebrating its anniversary next Friday, 2nd of December) was a huge success, attracting players from all over the world. Players will now have one more choice on their server selection screen!
The name of the new server comes from the final boss of the recently introduced Rhisis' Trail dungeon, who is currently the highest-level boss in the game. Further details on the Meteonyker server will be announced soon.
WEBZEN also takes this opportunity to announce the postponement of the anticipated US and German server merges to early 2017. This is not related to the launch of the Meteonyker server, and is mainly due to technical issues encountered in the QA phase of the project.
For more information on the game and the new Meteonyker server, interested players are invited to check out FLYFF's official website at http://flyff.webzen.com, and join the official Facebook community at https://www.facebook.com/flyffus.

MU ORIGIN Brings The Magic Knight Class in New Update
-
WEBZEN today released the latest major content patch for its real-time mobile MMORPG, MU Origin.
The patch introduces its newest class, the Magic Knight, to join the fray as the fourth class in the game. Unlike the other classes, the Magic Knight is a genius proficient with both Sword and Magic, endowed with a multitude of skills based on the skills of the Dark Wizard and the Dark Knight. He also possesses the ability to choose a path and specialize between wielding mighty combat arts and powerful magics.
With the arrival of the Magic Knight comes major additions to features recently introduced to the game. The Pet Synergy System allows a Warrior to draw strength from multiple pets at once, with rare combinations granting new buffs such as Double Damage Chance and major boons to current stats. Pets now have the ability to provide Special Buffs based on the pet’s total level. Aside from Pet Synergy and Special Buffs, Warriors can now upgrade their Wings with special feathers, adding a new layer of customization that allows players to upgrade their wings further than before.
The Achievement Rune and Fame Trophy Systems also comes with the Magic Knight Update, bringing a level of progression that allows players to enhance their character’s stats with Achievements from PvE and Fame from PvP content. With both additions to the Fame and Achievement system, a new statue will also be available in town called, “Statue of the Lorencia Ruler”, where the designated winner of the Loren Castle Siege will be displayed.
New areas also is now available, such as the Swamp of Peace and a new Story Dungeon called Devil’s Hatchery. Both areas contain powerful monsters to provide a greater challenge for high level players.
The latest MU Origin trailer has been released today, the video content is now available on the official WEBZEN YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0d3zTgLpZB4
