Global Classic World is open to everyone following Grand Launch on October 21, 2026. This page records confirmed changes and links to the guide they affect. It is not a live server-status service.

October 21: Grand Launch

The release notes add Housing, the Perion Excavation Site, Stumpy and event content. First jobs are at level 10 and second jobs at 30, with a launch level cap of 100. Kerning City Party Quest is on Channels 3–12. Review the starting guide and class comparison for the practical next steps.

October 22: Debt System

Nexon introduced account debt related to RMT or unfair trades. The Debt System guide covers the restrictions and repayment process, and distinguishes it from the new-account trading wait.
