\u201dWe could not be more pleased to be involved in bringing such a well-known and beloved series on the PC to a handheld platform,\u201d said Jun Iwasaki, President of XSEED Games. \u201cRagnarok Online DS stays true to the original while adding elements to optimize the experience on the Nintendo DS.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

What worries me is XSEED’s lack of clarification on the wireless functionality. Is it going to be local wireless only or will it also be Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection compliant for true online play? The press release doesn’t specify, which has me worried it may go the way of the Monster Hunter Freedom<\/em> PSP games and be local wireless only, despite the “Online” in the game’s title. <\/p>\nI’ve reached out to XSEED for clarification on this and will update if\/when I hear back. In the meantime, feel free to browse through the first screenshots and concept art in the gallery below.<\/p>\n
