Ragnarok: The New World has launched with a combat system that removes the traditional Combat Power, or CP, measure. Character strength numbers are therefore no longer presented as the primary factor in determining victory.
The new approach shifts attention to character knowledge, skill combinations, and fast decisions during battle. Gravity Games is positioning player strategy and execution as the central elements of competition.
The removal of CP is also intended to reduce the use of power numbers to intimidate opponents. Players are expected to respond to battle conditions rather than rely on a single strength indicator.
A new Druid class from day one
One of the launch additions is the Druid Class, which is available from the first day. The class can switch between three forms, allowing players to adapt their approach to different situations.
| Druid form | Description |
|---|---|
| Wild Beast Form | One of the three forms available to the Druid. |
| Bird of Prey Form | One of the three forms available to the Druid. |
| Human Form | One of the three forms available to the Druid. |
The ability to change forms supports the game’s emphasis on skill-based character development. It also gives Druid players several ways to adjust their play during an adventure.
Ragnarok: The New World offers several paths beyond combat-focused progression. Players can act as merchants, guild members, open-world explorers, or specialists concentrating on a particular character build.
Permanent login benefit and limited cosmetics

The cosmetic rewards give players more options for personalizing their characters. The [Monster Ruang Waktu] costume set is described as a special reward from global brand ambassador BABYMONSTER.
Server-opening events offer additional prizes
Gravity Games is also running a limited event called “Bargain Battle” to mark the server opening. Players can invite friends to bid on a limited summer costume for as little as 2% of its original price.
Participation in selected in-game events can provide opportunities to obtain merchandise, including a complete limited-edition BABYMONSTER photocard set. Activities during the opening period are also planned to distribute rewards throughout the day.
According to a company statement cited by Suara.com, players joining official community activities may have a chance to win smartphones, game gift cards, and international round-trip flight tickets. The company said these prizes are part of the launch celebration for Ragnarok The New World across multiple countries.
“By participating in various activities in the official community, players also have the opportunity to win main prizes such as smartphones, game gift cards, international round-trip flight tickets, and various other prizes,” the company said. The reward program accompanies a launch focused on player freedom and combat ability rather than CP rankings.
