If you've been keeping an eye on the Korean mobile gaming scene, you might have noticed the buzz around WeMade's highly anticipated MMORPG, Legend of Ymir. Launched in Korea, it has already achieved significant success, topping the charts on Google Play and securing a pre-release spot on the iOS App Store. The game's popularity has surged to such an extent that WeMade had to introduce an additional server to accommodate the growing player base.

To celebrate this success, WeMade is rolling out a range of in-game rewards for their loyal players. Alongside these celebrations, the company continues to emphasize its commitment to blockchain technology, with plans to integrate more non-fungible items (NFIs) into the game. While blockchain might not be at the forefront of gaming trends anymore, WeMade's focus on it remains strong.

Legend of Ymir's unique blend of Eastern MMORPG elements and a Norse-inspired setting has clearly resonated with Korean gamers. This success raises the question of whether an international release might be on the horizon. Only time will tell.

Valhalla and Beyond

Powered by the Unreal Engine, Legend of Ymir offers stunning graphics, tight gameplay, and high production values, positioning it as a leading next-gen mobile game. However, the persistent focus on blockchain technology serves as a reminder that many developers and publishers are still invested in this area, hoping to leverage it for future gains.

While the integration of blockchain into a potential global release remains a point of interest, it's clear that many gamers worldwide are eagerly anticipating Legend of Ymir's launch.
