After more than 10 years in the Philippines as the first online Free to Play game, Level Up Games has recently announced that Ran Online PH will merge with Ran Online Global Service. The announcement was made after a statement from Min Communications, the South Korean company responsible for developing the game.
Players are encouraged to participate in the migration process, which will be available starting August 5, 2015 at 6:00 AM [GMT +9] in the Ran Online PH website.
In line with the migration, the PH servers will be merged. Strife, Alab, and Rage in one server while Havoc and Apocalypse in the other, which will be named Strife and Havoc, respectively. These servers will be made specifically to house the Filipino players along with the Unity server, the third new server that will be launched to accommodate more players. Other details regarding Unity will be announced soon.
On further reading, it can be safely assumed that the players' characters will be safe and sound. They will not start from scratch and will even go up 1 level higher upon successful migration. Furthermore, all items and gold will be intact provided that they are all in the character's inventory as all items in the Item Bank will be wiped out. Guilds and membership will also not be affected. However, all on-going quests will be reset. (Please read the Migration FAQ here).
Below is Level Up Games' full announcement regarding the migration.
