The latest patch includes the Magic Knight class, new areas, the Achievement Rune and Fame Trophy Systems.

WEBZEN, a global developer and publisher of free-to-play games, today released the latest major content patch for its real-time mobile MMORPG, MU Origin.

 The patch introduces its newest class, the Magic Knight, to join the fray as the fourth class in the game. Unlike the other classes, the Magic Knight is a genius proficient with both Sword and Magic, endowed with a multitude of skills based on the skills of the Dark Wizard and the Dark Knight. He also possesses the ability to choose a path and specialize between wielding mighty combat arts and powerful magics.

With the arrival of the Magic Knight comes major additions to features recently introduced to the game. The Pet Synergy System allows a Warrior to draw strength from multiple pets at once, with rare combinations granting new buffs such as Double Damage Chance and major boons to current stats. Pets now have the ability to provide Special Buffs based on the pet’s total level. Aside from Pet Synergy and Special Buffs, Warriors can now upgrade their Wings with special feathers, adding a new layer of customization that allows players to upgrade their wings further than before.

The Achievement Rune and Fame Trophy Systems also comes with the Magic Knight Update, bringing a level of progression that allows players to enhance their character’s stats with Achievements from PvE and Fame from PvP content. With both additions to the Fame and Achievement system, a new statue will also be available in town called, “Statue of the Lorencia Ruler”, where the designated winner of the Loren Castle Siege will be displayed.

New areas also is now available, such as the Swamp of Peace and a new Story Dungeon called Devil’s Hatchery. Both areas contain powerful monsters to provide a greater challenge for high level players.

Meanwhile, current and returning players can receive the Magic Knight Update Gift upon logging into the game starting from November 24, 2016 (UTC). The Update Gift contains a variety of items designed to help the players with the new content that comes with the Magic Knight Update.

MU Origin is available for a free download on the App Store for iPhone and iPad and Google Play for Android devices.
