Netmarble (CEO Kim Byung-kyu) announced on the 22nd that it has rolled out various updates, including ‘Battle World,’ for its MMORPG ‘Raven 2’ (developed by Netmarble Monster).
‘Battle World’ is a global event world where players from various regions, including Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Macau, and Japan, can play together. It will be available until May 6, and is open to all players, whether participating individually or as part of a guild.
To celebrate the opening of ‘Battle World,’ the company is hosting various events, such as the ‘Battle World Victory Record Attendance’ and ’14-Day Decisive Battle Attendance.’ Rewards for the ‘Battle World’ event include the ‘2026 Ancient Vault,’ while other events offer items such as ‘Premium Stella 11x Summon,’ ‘Supreme Familiar 11x Summon,’ and ‘Supreme Saintly Garb 11x Summon.’
Notably, players can also earn ‘War Tokens,’ which can be exchanged for ‘Decisive Battle Bundle Selection Boxes,’ allowing them to obtain items like ‘Radiant Rare Heavenstone Selection Boxes’ and ‘Special Coin Selection Boxes.’ Additionally, ‘Decisive Battle Supply Boxes’ containing ‘Terramond,’ ‘Enhancement Stones,’ and ‘Stella Fragments’ have been added as rewards.
Furthermore, a new ‘Personal Trading’ feature has been added, allowing players to safely trade items of Rare, Hero, and Legendary grades. Other updates include a ‘Stella Conversion’ feature, which allows players to change the color of Hero-grade or higher Stellas, and quality-of-life improvements to the ‘Familiar Expedition’ system.
‘Raven 2,’ released in May 2024, is the sequel to the action RPG ‘Raven 1,’ which won six awards at the ‘2015 Korea Game Awards’—including the Grand Prize—and surpassed 1 million daily active users (DAU) within 40 days of its launch. Based on the ‘Raven’ universe, the game offers an expansive story where gods and demons coexist and supports cross-platform play on mobile and PC.

PakarPBN
A Private Blog Network (PBN) is a collection of websites that are controlled by a single individual or organization and used primarily to build backlinks to a “money site” in order to influence its ranking in search engines such as Google. The core idea behind a PBN is based on the importance of backlinks in Google’s ranking algorithm. Since Google views backlinks as signals of authority and trust, some website owners attempt to artificially create these signals through a controlled network of sites.
In a typical PBN setup, the owner acquires expired or aged domains that already have existing authority, backlinks, and history. These domains are rebuilt with new content and hosted separately, often using different IP addresses, hosting providers, themes, and ownership details to make them appear unrelated. Within the content published on these sites, links are strategically placed that point to the main website the owner wants to rank higher. By doing this, the owner attempts to pass link equity (also known as “link juice”) from the PBN sites to the target website.
The purpose of a PBN is to give the impression that the target website is naturally earning links from multiple independent sources. If done effectively, this can temporarily improve keyword rankings, increase organic visibility, and drive more traffic from search results.
