Ragnarok is dead? Nope, I just see dead pixels. The old Ragnarok  is maybe dead but there’s a direct sequel of the Ragnarok in amazing 3d glory officially named, Ragnarok Online 2: The Gate of the World. There’s no official annoucement yet of the release date of the new version but I must say kill the pixelized Ragnarok now! (no offense to ragnaveterans reading at this moment )

There’s another Ragnarok spin-off game exclusively for the Nintendo DS which was just released in Japan last December 2008. Ragnarok Online DS is a game based on the MMORPG however its massively features in the the original will not be present in this version^, but will support up to three players simultaneously in a variety of multi-player dungeons. The game will also be ported to US in Winter 2009.

Check out how the video killed the pixel star after the jump…

There will be a storyline throughout the game, in which you take the role of Ales, a novice, and choose how he will develop as the game progresses. Throughout the game, you will be accompanied by Sierra, a shaman class, who will help you out during battles. Later in the game, you will have certain characters join your party for a time, such as;

Lucifi: A Swordsman class (On the right)

Viselc: A Thief class (Bottom left)

Lisir: A Mage class (Top left)

Ales will be able to change into any of the 1st class job characters as in Ragnarok Online and will be able to obtain 2nd class job at job level 40-50. – wikipedia.org
