WEBZEN’s MU: Pocket Knights Opens Global Pre-Registration with Cute Idle RPG Spin
Webzen Inc. has officially announced its upcoming mobile title, MU: Pocket Knights, an idle RPG set to launch in the second half of 2025. Developed by DAWNLIKE, the game is based on WEBZEN’s legendary MU IP, first introduced in 2001, and now reimagined in a lighter, more charming form. Pre-registration is currently available worldwide for both Android and iOS users.
A Fresh Take on the Classic MU Series
Unlike traditional MMORPGs in the MU franchise, MU: Pocket Knights offers a more casual experience with idle progression systems. Players can enjoy rapid growth, automated battles, and low-effort character advancement while still diving into the depth and legacy of MU gameplay.
This time, you’ll step into the MU Universe as adorable, pocket-sized characters, exploring nostalgic regions like Atlans and Tarkan in a new art style. The story begins in Lorencia, where chaos spreads across forests and mountains after a mysterious force descends from the sky. Guided by the Angel Fairy, the Pocket Knights rise to defend the land.
Features and Gameplay Highlights
MU: Pocket Knights promises a blend of classic MU nostalgia with modern idle mechanics, offering:
- 20 uniquely themed regions to explore
- Four unique heroes with distinct abilities
- Multi-idle features for easy progression
- Rare costumes, equipment, and collectible gear
- Fast-paced combat with adorable 2D animated style
Fans of the MU series will find familiar elements from games like MU Online, MU Origin, MU Legend, and MU Archangel, but presented in a refreshing, casual-friendly format perfect for mobile players.
Release Date and Pre-Registration
According to the App Store listing, MU: Pocket Knights is expected to release on December 24, 2025. Until then, players can pre-register now on the Google Play Store and App Store to secure early rewards and updates.
With its combination of nostalgic MU content and cute idle RPG mechanics, MU: Pocket Knights is shaping up to be a fun addition to WEBZEN’s long-standing franchise.
