Gravity just announced the release of Ragnarok's latest incarnation -- Ragnarok Journey. It's basically Ragnarok Online but for browser. No need to install a client on your PC. It’s also referred to as Casual MMORPG (Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game).
In today's launch party held at Glorietta Activity Center in Makati, no less than Gravity Chief Operating Officer (COO) Yoshinori Kitamura announced the launched of Ragnarok Journey PH (ROJPH) – browser MMORPG where players can battle against colorful monsters, gain new abilities and participate in quests in a fantasy world.
Here’s what different about Ragnarok Online:
- Auto play – Turn it on and your character goes on full auto mode killing monsters and looting.
- Choose a specialized class at level 10 – such as Magician (Mage) or Swordsman.
- Characters can also accumulate new abilities by manually adding skill points. You can unleash devastating attacks on colorful monsters (the same model used in the classic PC Ragnarok Online).
- Undertake quests from NPCs and enjoy daily rewards just like great MMORPGs.
Betong Sumaya (of GMA 7) and Arianne Bautista hosted the event with several performances from Gracenote. I guess the highlight of the launch party is the introduction of the game’s ambassadors – Ann Mateo, Alex Diaz, Bekimon and Shehyee.
There was also a performance by 6cyclemind and a guy from The Voice PH. This event is made possible through partnership with ROG - Republic of Gamers, Redragon, Seagate, Nissin Yakisoba, Jack ‘n Jill Calbee, Universal Robina Corporation among others.

Players and mall-goers lining up to one of the sponsors. Events like these is a great venue to get to know new tech companies providing computers, gadgets and peripherals. I’ve seen amazing keyboard, mouse and headset from Redragon as well as ultra slim external hard drives from Seagate.
My fellow iRO Thor citizen and Assassin Cross expert Reginald Bueno with Liliana Bae, Business Division / Global Business Group Supervisor. She gave a press conference at the nearby coffee shop. I asked if there will be a Port Malaya (Philippine Map) included but not at this point.
The four horsemen, errr I mean, influcencers, of Ragnarok Journey – Shehyee, Ann Mateo, Alex Diaz and Bekimon. They played Pinoy Henyo featuring words from Ragnarok. Their words were Peco-Peco, Poring (winner) and Acolyte.
Gracenote in the house. One of the numerous musicians who entertained the crowd. I love it when they mix Ragnarok with local bands. I hope there will be another CD featuring songs created just for the Ragnarok fans.
Bekimon – also one of the influencers who’s going to play the game.
