Tap Tap sa Prontera! Delabs Games to Launch Ragnarok on Telegram

Confirming a shift in strategy to focus on Telegram as a platform for its future games, South Korean blockchain-focused game developer Delabs Games announced that it will bring the Ragnarok IP to the Telegram Mini-Apps Ecosystem. 

What’s the Significance: Delabs Games’ initiative to produce games on Telegram aims to make mid-core gaming available on the messaging app and offer a new experience to players and airdrop farmers.

Short Background: The launch of the Ragnarok Telegram game is the first move by Delabs Games to release games directly within Telegram while utilizing The Open Network (TON) for the games’ rewards systems and other in-game features.

• Recently, Delabs Games received investments from the TON Foundation and an individual named Noah Kim.

Key Details: The Ragnarok Telegram game is scheduled to launch in the first quarter of 2025.

• What Version of Ragnarok Will Be on Telegram? There is no confirmation yet from Delabs Games, but there are speculations that, based on the teaser, it could be a version of Ragnarok Labyrinth, which was first released as an NFT game by Gravity in 2022 but was discontinued. 
• What to Expect? The South Korean-developed game is known for its maze exploration gameplay, but the Telegram-based game is said to have an updated rewards system through the TON blockchain.

Key Quote: 

“Bringing Ragnarok to Telegram marks a bold step in our strategy to bring well-known IPs and adventure-filled games directly to players where they’re already connecting. With Ragnarok, we’re creating an experience that’s not only true to its roots but also enhanced by Web3 features—without any added complexity.”

Between the Lines: The Telegram-based version of Ragnarok is expected to attract players, delivering nostalgia to the Batang 90s who grew up in internet cafes, as it is now easier to access.

• In fact, Ragnarok: Monster World, which was launched on the Ronin network this year, attracted at least 32,000 players on its closed beta testing.
