Nexon Sets Nov. 26 Launch for MMORPG Tempppal: Overgeared

Crafting and gear growth

Players take on the role of a blacksmith, like the original's protagonist Grid. A critical success when crafting lets them stamp their name and a master-craftsman grade on an item. These "signature" items can be safely enhanced across a range two steps wider than regular gear, and other players can equip them.

Gear growth continues after an item is acquired: players strengthen and break through slots to unlock sealed stats. Once a "core score", which reflects slot and equipment progress, reaches a threshold, an "Overclock" mode lets players fill a gauge in battle for extra effects.

Servers as dimensions

In the "Dimension" system, each server is its own dimension. Sufficiently advanced players can stay in their home server while crossing into others to party up or fight. In the "Dimension League" regular season, servers of similar strength compete based on the combined contributions of their players.

Roadmap and pricing

Early content includes the "Vampire City" and a server-wide defense event called "Human-Demon War". Within two months, a Hellgao raid and daily dungeons arrive. The first major update at month three adds new regions including Titan, episodes, a new class and siege warfare. At month six, a Reinhardt siege called "Golem Invasion", a new boss, Marie Rose, and a new weapon line are planned, plus the ability to join sieges in other dimensions.

On monetization, PD Choi Byung-cheon said the game will not demand spending that makes normal play difficult. Paid items such as classes, "God Hand" summons and extra growth slots can also be earned in play, and the Smart Party and Schedule Mode features are free for everyone. The team says it focused on an economy where gear and materials trade actively.
