• 2nd OBT to feature linked game "Get Poring," Ragnarok IP's first UGC feature "RO Factory," and new content "MVP Raid"

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia, June 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Gravity Game Unite (GGU), the Malaysia branch of global game company Gravity, has announced the schedule for the 2nd Open Beta Test (OBT) of its PC MMORPG "Ragnarok Zero: Global."

The 2nd OBT will run from 9:00 AM on July 7 to 7:59 AM on July 15, based on Malaysia Time. Users from Southeast Asia, Europe, and Oceania will be able to participate by signing up on the official website and downloading the PC client.

During the 2nd OBT, Ragnarok Zero: Global will introduce several new features designed to enhance the gameplay experience, including the linked game "Get Poring," "RO Factory," the first User Generated Content (UGC) feature in the Ragnarok IP that allows users to create custom footprint items, and the new in-game content "MVP Raid." Get Poring is a linked game connected to Ragnarok Zero: Global, where players can collect and raise unique Porings and send them to Ragnarok Zero: Global to use as companions.

RO Factory, the first UGC feature in the Ragnarok IP, is a customization feature that allows users to create their own in-game cosmetic items. Custom items created through the factory can be uploaded to or downloaded from the Ragnarok Zero: Global community through the RO Factory global market page. MVP Raid is new in-game raid content where parties can challenge MVP monsters. Players can obtain various rewards and loot by defeating monsters, while additional rewards will be granted upon completing related quests.

Through the 1st OBT held in May, Ragnarok Zero: Global confirmed strong interest in the game through the participation and feedback of many global users. In particular, the game received positive responses from users in Europe, further raising expectations for the global service. Based on user feedback and gameplay data gathered during the 1st OBT, GGU plans to introduce new content during the upcoming 2nd OBT.

Ragnarok Zero: Global is a PC MMORPG based on the key elements of the original Ragnarok Online, including its world view, 2D pixel graphics, and BGM. While maintaining the classic gameplay of the original title, the game delivers a new gameplay experience through new stories and content expanded within the world of Midgard. It also improves the overall gameplay environment through adjustments to character growth and game progression, as well as enhanced UI and UX. Features such as auto-combat, improved regional travel convenience, and expanded camera functions support smoother character growth and a more comfortable gameplay experience.

Harry Choi, President of Gravity Game Unite, stated, "In the 2nd OBT scheduled for July, we plan to introduce a linked game, the first UGC feature in the Ragnarok IP, and new content designed to make the game even more enjoyable, while also reviewing the responses from global users. Based on feedback from the two OBTs, we will continue improving the quality of the content and the stability of the service. After the 2nd OBT, we plan to proceed with preparations for the official launch and gradually reveal additional content and events. We look forward to your interest and participation in the upcoming 2nd OBT."

Gravity Game Unite (GGU) Announces 2nd OBT for PC MMORPG "Ragnarok Zero: Global"

HONG KONG, June 22, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Following the highly successful launch of its Key Stage 3 in March, Shrewsbury International School Hong Kong has officially accelerated its mission to develop into a premium through-train school. At its historic Founding Key Stage 3 Cohort Reception, the school announced the opening of an additional Year 7 class for the upcoming August 2026 intake. This strategic expansion directly answers a profound market longing. Families are actively seeking a secure, uninterrupted, and elite British education that provides absolute academic continuity.

Honoured by the presence of the school governors, the milestone event highlighted how this structural growth provides long term academic security. With Year 7 arriving in August 2026 and Year 8 following in August 2027, graduating students receive guaranteed consideration for progression into Year 9 at Shrewsbury School UK. This structural link anchors each child's personal journey within a celebrated 474-year British educational lineage founded by Royal Charter in 1552, perfectly answering parent desires for an international stage for the aspirations of their children.

Living Proof of the Seamless Global Pathway
The absolute efficacy of this interconnected global network is illustrated by the journey of Alex, a distinguished founding student and Year 6 achievement scholar who graduated from Shrewsbury International School Hong Kong in June 2024. After completing his primary phases in Hong Kong, Alex seamlessly transitioned to Packwood School, a fellow member of the Shrewsbury family, and will enter the historic gates of Shrewsbury School UK this coming August.

"Beginning my education as a founding student at Shrewsbury Hong Kong established the essential academic rigour and global perspective that prepared me for my time within the wider school family," Alex remarked. "The whole journey has been absolutely seamless and brilliant. Knowing my path connects directly from Hong Kong to Packwood School, and now straight to the historic gates of Shrewsbury UK this August, is incredibly exciting. I honestly cannot wait to get started at Shrewsbury School UK."

Validating Parent Aspirations
To commemorate this milestone, the evening featured the sealing of the Founding Futures Time Capsule, a symbolic ceremony linking the heritage of the school, the present community, and the global trajectory of its pioneering students.

Shrewsbury Hong Kong Principal Priya Kanthan stated: "The sealing of the Founding Futures Time Capsule, combined with the opening of an additional Year 7 class, marks a profound moment of validation for our global family of schools. This expansion proves that our premium through-train model, which is deeply driven by core values, is exactly what parents are looking for to secure the future of their children. The extraordinary demand from families reinforces that the region deeply values an education rooted in strength of character, mutual respect, and global citizenship. Shrewsbury Hong Kong remains fully committed to ensuring educational continuity and shared standards of high achievement across our Shrewsbury education."
