Major update includes the debut of the "Rune Fighter" class to drive global growth and user engagement
SEOUL, South Korea, March 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Leading global game developer WEMADE, parent company of the global blockchain ecosystem WEMIX, has announced that the highly anticipated global version of its flagship MMORPG, Legend of YMIR, will officially launch on the PC gaming platform Steam on April 7, 2026, at 10:00 AM KST.
The launch on Steam represents a pivotal milestone in the Legend of YMIR global expansion strategy. Circumventing traditional platform constraints, WEMADE aims to tap into the massive Steam ecosystem to secure a sustainable, long-term user base and enhance accessibility for players worldwide. By leveraging Steam's robust global infrastructure, this move is designed not only as a platform addition but a core component of a broader effort to establish Legend of YMIR as a premier global PC franchise.
To coincide with the Steam launch, a massive content expansion will introduce a new combat class, the "Rune Fighter", a formidable new hero that wields the ancient power of runes to deliver a unique and versatile combat style. Unlike standard content patches, this update is designed to expand the game's tactical depth to attract new players while providing significant fresh content to incentivize the return of veteran users.
Michael Kim, Head of Game Business Division, WEMADE, said: "Our goal is to provide a premium PC gaming experience that lives up to the standards of the Steam community. Launching on a new platform alongside the 'Rune Fighter' expansion marks the beginning of a new era for our players."
Earlier this month, WEMADE and leading gaming lifestyle brand Razer partnered to host the inaugural YMIR Cup World Championship, bringing together elite talent from across the globe. Following the event's success as well as a Steam debut and major expansion on the horizon, WEMADE continues to scale the Norse mythology-inspired title into a long-term competitive IP built to support its global audience.

- Medical staff from Ulsan University Hospital and employees of HD Hyundai Heavy Industries Philippines provide care to about 750 local residents
- HD Hyundai operates a shipyard in Subic and participates in the Philippine Navy's modernization program
SEOUL, South Korea, March 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Ulsan University Hospital, under the Ulsan Industrial Education Foundation affiliated with HD Hyundai, launched a six-day large-scale medical mission in Subic on March 16, providing essential health care services to approximately 750 local residents.
The initiative, which ran from March 16 to March 21, mobilized a specialized medical team from Ulsan University Hospital alongside employees from HD Hyundai Heavy Industries Philippines and local government officials. The mission focused on expanding healthcare access in the region while deepening ties between South Korean medical experts and the Subic community.
The initiative has been recognized as a model for corporate-hospital social contribution, combining Ulsan University Hospital's medical expertise with HD Hyundai Heavy Industries Philippines' global infrastructure to foster sustainable growth alongside the local community.
Through its shipyard operations, HD Hyundai supports the Philippine Navy's modernization efforts, producing a range of sophisticated fleet assets including frigates and offshore patrol vessels (OPV).
The mission coincides with HD Hyundai's expanding maritime operations in the country. In May 2024, HD Korea Shipbuilding & Offshore Engineering signed a lease agreement with Cerberus Capital Management for a portion of the Subic shipyard. By September 2025, the newly established HD Hyundai Heavy Industries Philippines reached a major milestone with the steel-cutting ceremony for its first vessel, a 115,000-deadweight-ton petrochemical product carrier.
Beyond commercial shipbuilding, HD Hyundai Heavy Industries has emerged as a primary partner in the Philippine Navy's fleet modernization program. The company has secured orders for 12 naval vessels, including frigates, corvettes, and OPVs. To date, every vessel delivered under these orders has been handed over ahead of schedule, reinforcing the company's reputation for reliability and technical performance.
