MONARCH Sea Debuts, Expanding MU Experience Globally

MU: Monarch, a highly anticipated MMORPG adaptation of the popular South Korean series, is now available in Singapore, Malaysia, and the Philippines! This international release brings a classic MMORPG experience to Southeast Asia.

The game features four brand-new classes: Dark Knight, Dark Wizard, Elf, and Magic Gladiator, setting it apart from its predecessors. Instead of typical in-game launch rewards, players can participate in a special raffle for a chance to win prizes.

A key feature highlighted in MU: Monarch's marketing is its robust trading system. The game's randomized loot system allows players to obtain even rare items from monsters, creating opportunities for lucrative trades with other players.
