Launch Events & Rewards
Confirmed promotional rewards tied to the Southeast Asia launch of Ragnarok: The New World.
BABYMONSTER Brand Ambassador
K-pop girl group BABYMONSTER (YG Entertainment) is Ragnarok: The New World's official global brand ambassador. The partnership was first announced through a promotional video in June 2026, ahead of the Southeast Asia Open Beta Test. The group made a live appearance at the game's pre-launch "Carnival" festival on July 5, 2026, and a surprise appearance at the Grand Server Opening event on July 16, 2026.
Login Reward: BABYMONSTER Collaboration
Players who log in by August 16, 2026 receive a free costume, a profile frame, and a limited-time "Monster Rookie" title, tied to the BABYMONSTER collaboration.
Grand Server Opening Rewards (July 16, 2026)
To mark the Southeast Asia Open Beta launch, Gravity ran a Grand Server Opening event with several confirmed free rewards for logging in:
- Kafra VIP Pass — a permanent unlock granting Offline AFK, Daily Task Reward Recovery, free Skill Reset, and other quality-of-life perks.
- DJ Poring headwear — a limited custom cosmetic item.
- Cosmic Monster costume set — gifted as part of the BABYMONSTER collaboration.
- Sailwave Rhythm avatar frame — a limited profile frame.
MVP Kill Reward
Regardless of the promotional periods above, defeating any designated MVP boss rewards players with a classic Angel Poring Headband.
Reception So Far
Early press coverage of the Southeast Asia Open Beta cited positive player feedback from the earlier Genesis Test (closed beta, which ran until June 21, 2026), particularly around art quality and reduced monetization pressure compared to other mobile MMORPGs. As with any freshly launched live-service game, expect this to keep evolving as more players get hands-on time.
