MONGIL: STAR DIVE Adds New 5-Star Character in Version 1.5 Update

Netmarble announced on November 11 that it has released the Version 1.5 update for MONGIL: STAR DIVE, introducing the new 5-star character 'M.A.D.' Developed by Netmarble Monster, the PC and mobile monster-taming action RPG also debuted a new story and a seasonal ranking system.

'M.A.D.' is a Fire-element assassin character and the top mechanical engineer in Nirvan, earning the nickname 'Architect of Brilliant Blasts.' Her real name is Miadrin, and lore reveals she began operating under her codename after leaving the Ortus Group for undisclosed reasons.

The special event story 'Flames Pursuing Freedom,' which delves into the character's hidden lore, will run for three weeks from November 11 to December 2. Players can earn rewards such as live backgrounds using currency collected from event stages and minigames. Additionally, the main story has been expanded with the new episode 'Light from a Fallen Star.'

During the event period, pick-up recruitment for 'M.A.D.' and new Artifacts will also take place. Events such as 'Special Mission with M.A.D.' and 'M.A.D.'s 7-Day Gift' offer rewards including summon tickets, key growth materials, and a 'Mutant Monsterling Selection Box.'

An 'Honor Ranking' system that awards profile frames based on seasonal records has also been introduced. The system determines seasonal ranks by summing points earned over a set period in modes such as 'Conquest,' 'Legendary Conquest,' and 'Dimensional Rift.'

Participation methods and convenience features for existing content were also revamped. 'Race' has been updated so playable characters directly participate instead of monsters, while the friend system now features a Friend Ranking tab and a key-claiming feature based on recent login times.

Furthermore, the final damage calculation method has been improved, and the level restriction on 'Link Chain Cat' has been removed. The 'Archive' has added Character, Artifact, and Decoration tabs. Detailed update information is available on the official MONGIL: STAR DIVE website and forums.
