Kakao Games announced that its upcoming sci-fi MMORPG, Ares: Rise of Guardians is making its debut in Korean markets for mobile and PC on July 25.
The game was previously shown off at the Korean game show G-Star 2022, and was noted for having impressive visuals and effects for an MMORPG running on Android, iOS, and PC. The game was so popular it broke past 1,000,000 pre-registrations within 5 days of the game being announced and has since exceeded 2,000,000 players as of writing.
The game also launched its character creation at the end of June and has already reached its upper limit when it comes to player numbers in several of its servers, and it’s expected there will be even more players jumping into the game, so if you plan on giving it a go you may experience some server delays on launch.
