Hello Adventurers, This is the WonderKing Team. Foremost, we sincerely apologize for delivering such unfortunate news. The release date originally scheduled for December 29th, 2025, has regrettably been postponed to January 12th, 2026. We deeply regret any disappointment this may cause to our adventurers who have been eagerly anticipating the launch. The WonderKing team has received a wide range of feedback from our passionate adventurers during the previous Closed Beta Test. To honor your enthusiasm and expectations, we have been preparing various improvements that were not included in the Korean service. Here are some of the key preparements: We first have prioritized efforts to stabilize the servers. During the CBT, we observed server instability, and our team has been thoroughly investigating and addressing these issues. To resolve problems caused by outdated server and database structures, our engineers are currently on-site in Virginia, USA, working on server deployment. During the implementation on local infrastructure, certain variables have arisen due to differences in hardware and network conditions. We are fully committed to ensuring that when you connect, you will experience a zero-lag environment with the highest possible stability through close collaboration with the local team. We have also made a number of in-game enhancements. Originally, WonderKing was developed for a fixed, limited resolution. However, in order to accommodate the variety of display environments our users now utilize, we have added more resolution options to improve your gaming experience.
Of course, some may wonder if this is a simple task. We completely understand, as we thought so too! However, because the game was not originally developed to support variable resolutions, numerous issues arose. Reviewing and adjusting the entire game’s UI, images, and maps to function properly at variable resolutions proved far more challenging than we had expected. In addition to these, there were hundreds of other fixes, including incorrect translations that received frequent criticism, character synchronization issues caused by auto-movement, and NPCs speaking in Korean unexpectedly. Due to these challenges, we recognized that meeting the originally announced release date would be difficult. To provide a more complete and polished experience, we have decided to allow a brief additional period for final improvements. We fully understand the disappointment this decision may bring, and we share in that sentiment with our adventurers. To help ease the wait, all previously promised rewards from pre-registration to CBT participation will be distributed starting December 29th, 2025. 1️. Beta Tester Feedback Reward: $70 rewards for the top 3 adventurers who provided the best feedback will begin distribution on December 29th. 2️. Pre-Registration Lucky Draw: $100 rewards for the 7 lucky winners (total $700) will be announced and delivered on December 29th.
Talker King (Chat Ranking): Rankings will close as scheduled, and the Top 10 users (1st place $100) will receive their prizes starting December 29th.
Additionally, we are preparing release delay compensation to express our gratitude for your patience and support. We promise to provide rewards that will truly delight our adventurers. Our team is working tirelessly in Virginia to put the final pieces in place, and we greatly appreciate your unwavering support and understanding. Thank you, as always, for your continued enthusiasm and encouragement. -The WonderKing Team
