-Unveils a new design featuring Korean symbols and launches a ticket event for the upcoming NOL Festival
-Connects online and offline experiences by expanding partnerships with local brands highly favored by tourists
SEOUL, South Korea, Sept. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- NOL Universe announced on the 16th that the NOL World Card, a prepaid card launched this past May exclusively for foreign tourists visiting Korea, has surpassed 10,000 issuances in just three months.
The NOL World Card is a collaborative payment solution introduced by NOL Universe, Woori Bank, and KONA I to enhance payment convenience and financial accessibility for tourists visiting Korea.
To ensure foreign tourists can use the card immediately upon arrival, it is issued at Woori Bank currency exchange counters inside Incheon International Airport and provides preferential exchange rates. A key feature of the card is its versatility; users can seamlessly exchange currency, top up their balances, and withdraw cash through various channels nationwide, including airport exchange counters, Woori Bank branches, ATMs, unmanned currency exchange machines, and partner kiosks.
To commemorate reaching the 10,000-card milestone, NOL Universe has completely revamped the card's aesthetic. The newly unveiled design highlights various iconic Korean symbols, including Namsan Seoul Tower, the Korean national flag, and Gyeongbokgung Palace. Furthermore, the company is hosting a promotional event on Instagram and Weibo. Users who share the NOL World Card design via story and tag the official NOL World account will be entered into a lucky draw to win tickets to the NOL Festival scheduled for this October.
Lee Soo-jung, lead of the Inbound Business Planning Team at NOL Universe, stated, "We plan to develop the NOL World Card beyond a simple payment method, turning it into a vital bridge that connects NOL World's online services with physical offline experiences in Korea." She added, "Moving forward, we will not only integrate payments within the NOL World platform but also introduce diverse card designs utilizing K-content IPs and expand partnerships with major local brands. Our goal is to establish it as a must-have item for traveling in Korea—one that offers practical convenience and exclusive benefits while holding high collectible value."

NOL Universe Surpasses 10,000 NOL World Card Issuances in Just 3 Months Since Launch
First Fresh Start Server ZERO Eases Growth and Competition Barriers, While Existing Servers Receive "Legendary Festival" Rewards
SEOUL, South Korea, Sept. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Netmarble, a leading developer and publisher of high-quality games, has launched a major update for its dark fantasy MMORPG RAVEN2, opening the game's first fresh start server "ZERO," alongside "Legendary Festival" for existing servers.
ZERO opened on September 15 (UTC +0) as a specialized server with a different ruleset from existing servers. Built for new and returning players, ZERO eases growth burdens, monetization pressure, PK stress, and competition barriers through increased equipment drop rates and EXP gains, adjusted combat balance, and a simplified progression structure that excludes Mythic-grade Summons and Awakenings. A key feature is Farming Crystals, which allows players to obtain Crystals, a core in-game currency, through hunting and gameplay.
Certain fields are peace zones where PK is disabled, while field bosses in these zones allow broader participation, guild crafting materials, and high-grade equipment crafting. ZERO currently lets players experience Abyss 1F and the Sinerim region, with future content to follow sequentially.
ZERO-exclusive events offer 550 Summon Scrolls, Legendary Holy Garment and Familiar, weekly chances to obtain Heroic Holy Garment or Familiar during the first month after launch, and level milestone chests. The ZERO Special Corps Member Growth Event provides Heroic equipment and skill books, while the [ZERO] Special Starter Package, containing Heroic Holy Garment (1) Summon Scroll, Heroic Familiar (1) Summon Scroll and more, is available to all players upon login.
For existing servers, "Legendary Festival" offers Legendary Holy Garment and Familiar, 330 Summon Scrolls, Abyss-related benefits, and the upgraded Elite Special Corps Member Growth Event with high-grade equipment and more. Running through October 7, the event dungeon "Full Moon Forest" will be available across both existing servers and ZERO, offering generous rewards to participants.
An official sequel to Raven (EvilBane: The Iron King), RAVEN2 is a blockbuster MMORPG set in a dark fantasy realm reimagined with unrivaled graphics. As a member of the Special Corps, players will embark on a journey to investigate dangerous and bizarre incidents under royal order, and engage in a large-scale, cruel war.
