Kakao Games reveals details for new MMORPG ‘Dokkaebi’s World’

Kakao Games has revealed key details regarding the economic structure and service schedule for its upcoming 2.5D MMORPG, ‘Dokkaebi’s World’. Developed by Supercat, the game features a hybrid visual style combining 2D dot characters with 3D backgrounds.

During a recent live demonstration, developers explained that the in-game economy centers on a currency called ‘Geumjeon’. Players can acquire this through various activities, such as field bosses, raids, and clan content. To balance gameplay, the developers have separated growth-related items from cosmetic items; clothing and mounts do not provide combat stats, ensuring that aesthetic choices do not impact character progression.

The game also implements user-friendly systems, such as a policy where equipment does not break or lose rank upon failed enhancement. Additionally, the developers stated they will focus on single-character growth rather than requiring multiple characters, and will enforce a policy prohibiting multiple client executions on a single device.

Character name pre-registration is scheduled to begin on September 22. One-character names will be available for a limited four-hour window, followed by names ranging from two to eight characters on September 23. ‘Dokkaebi’s World’ is officially slated for release on October 8.
