Seoul, Korea (March 14, 2018) – Netmarble Games Corp., the fastest-growing mobile game company worldwide, has added new dungeons, equipment, events and more to its hit mobile MMORPG Lineage 2: Revolution.

In the latest game update, the brand-new party dungeon Temporal Rift will now be open for parties consisting of two to five players. Players will carry out strategic missions while unfolding story scenarios and will need to cooperate and strategize with one another to clear the dungeon. There are two maps in the Temporal Rift, Altar of Madness and Countess of Blood’s Boudoir, that will be available alternately every day, with guaranteed rewards such as Cloak Strengthening material and Monster Cores (Ramog Core and Trisha Core) for successfully completing a Temporal Rift. Players will also have the chance to randomly receive one Cloak, one Maphr’s Protection, Blessed Scrolls, and more.

A new Clan Dungeon, the Cruma Core Room will also be available for clans to attempt and defeat a new Magical Monster Boss, the Cruma Core, for various rewards. With various attack pattern of the boss monster, the difficulty level of the Cruma Core Room is higher than other Clan Dungeons and recommends players to be equipped with Magical Monster-specialized Equipment to defeat the Cruma Core.

A new equipment class, the Red Rare Equipment, has been added which deals extra damage to Magical Monsters and reduces the damage taken from them. Specially made for PvE, the Red Rare Equipment contrasts with Blue Rare Equipment which are specialized for PvP.

Finally, a new Cloak item is now available for players to showcase their personality and allow them to receive additional effects and buffs. Cloaks are available when a player reaches level 75 and grant specific stats and effects depending on the type of Cloak. The Personal Cloak can be purchased in-game or by clearing the Temporal Rift, while the Clan Cloak can be acquired by registering into a clan or by creating one.

In celebration of these new changes, three new events will also begin starting today. The Conquer the Temporal Rift Event, which lasts until April 11, allows players to easily acquire a Cloak and materials to level-up the Cloak. The 7-Day Login Event, which lasts until March 28, gives players various rewards for logging in for seven consecutive days, where players can receive up to 800 Red Diamonds and Rare Monster Summoning Stones upon logging in for seven days straight.

The update will also bring enhanced in-game features, including the UI enhancements in the Monster Summoning Stone Dungeon, which makes it easier for the players to enter the dungeon by separating the menu from other dungeons and removing the need to go through the Inventory to summon monsters. Moreover, the Inventory has been expanded to 500 slots.
