A 2010 Release for Ragnarok II and Ragnarok Web Game

You know how much I love Ragnarok. And now that it's coming in DS, news of Ragnarok Online II hitting the Western market has come up.

Late last year, Level Up! kinda announced the coming of RO II. But it never happened. It was a flop in the Asian market, so I guess Level Up! didn't risk releasing it here anymore. Imagine the sadness of the RO fanatics hoping to get their feel of the new sequel.

Gravity, though, didn't give up and updated everything, including RO II's engine from Unreal 2.5 to Gamebryo. And now they're having a 2010 release... in the West.

But hey, we have a reason to rejoice, too! Since social networking games (SNG) are a fad now, Gravity will also release a Ragnarok web game in 2010. And I'm kinda sure they'd link to Facebook. Heh! It's now the most popular social networking site, especially for SNG's. And do you really think Gravity would link Ragna to Friendster or MySpace? Or worse, Tagged and Orkut?

Omigad! As early as now, I can already see myself playing Ragna on Facebook all day.
