Riode Zone Showcased

Perfect World (North American publisher of RaiderZ) partnered with MMORPG.com to showcase another zone you will be adventuring in. Riode is a cheery zone filled with dangerous enemies. Among cherry blossom trees you will face terrible monsters that corrupted even the Saint Fhannel Monastery.

Monastery Director Nator has promised pain and punishment to any unwelcome adventurers



Riode also contains a World boss called Yilllis whose deadly water splash damage attacks will wipe unprepared groups in mere seconds. The zone should also house Zygniv, a terrible demon that made a short appearance in CBT (you can see all the goodies he dropped in CBT on this Zygniv page).

Watch the Riode zone video preview to get a better feel for what awaits as Open Beta draws ever closer.

Raiderz Features Presentation

Raiderz is a new Free to Play MMORPG that is about to go into Open Beta stage in Europe and the West. We sat down with people from Gameforge (publisher of the game for Europe) during GamesCom 2012 gaming convention and went over everything the game has for perspective players. I had this game on my radar for a while now because the game features these big monsters scattered around the world that you can engage and get some pretty nice loot. It is a highly polished Korean MMO and I had fun playing it in the closed beta. We had enough fun to create this website for all the future RaiderZ players. Watch the full video for description of each of the game’s features accompanied with gameplay footage.
