• [MOBILE] Kakao Games and Lionheart Studio unveil their new MMORPG 'OdinQ' for the first time.










Kakao Games announced on the 23rd that its subsidiary Lionheart Studio has unveiled the official title and BI of the upcoming MMORPG 'OdinQ' currently in development.

The revealed title and BI visualize the direction and identity that 'OdinQ' aims for, capturing the atmosphere of the reinterpretation of the Nordic mythological epic 'EDDA' in a modern context. The officially released illustrations visually express the mythological colors and atmosphere unique to the world view of 'Odin' IP through key characters in the game.

'OdinQ' was first unveiled as 'ProjectQ' at G-Star 2024. It boasts top-notch graphics based on Unreal Engine 5 and a full 3D seamless open world in quarter view manner. Building upon the mythological interpretation and high-end graphic expertise established in 'Odin: Valhalla Rising,' Lionheart Studio is implementing a more expanded world view and new technology-based MMORPG gameplay experience.

The game is set in a world based on the core material of Nordic mythology, 'EDDA.' It offers high freedom by preserving combat uniqueness through various races and job combinations. Moreover, by placing unique mechanics in each region and dungeon, it enhances cooperative-focused combat fun and strategically places conflict-cooperation contents appropriately to allow for different growth directions based on users' preferred play style.

'OdinQ' is currently in development aiming for a release in 2026. Lionheart Studio is focusing on enhancing visual quality and immersion in 'OdinQ' based on the technical prowess and graphic quality that 'Odin: Valhalla Rising' has been highly praised for even in its 5th year of service. Kakao Games plans to focus on ensuring stable service for 'Odin Q' based on MMORPG operation expertise accumulated on domestic and global stages.

A Kakao Games official stated, "‘OdinQ' aims to expand the existing world of the 'Odin' IP while enhancing the immersion and completeness unique to Norse myth-based MMORPGs. Starting from the title and BI unveiling, we will gradually showcase development achievements and strive to create meaningful accomplishments."

Development progress and future public contents of 'OdinQ' will be sequentially announced through official channels.
