In the Autumn of 2006, the newly founded company, Gorilla Banana announced they would develop an online game named Red Blood Online based on the comics of the same title and released a video for the game, from which, we can see stunning graphics and characters. And the comics author Kim Tae Shin's joining in the development of Red Blood Online aroused great attention from the gamers.

Nevertheless, in the next 2 years, the dev team released no further information about Red Blood Online. And players gradually lost their interest in the game. It's rumored that the company gave up the plan on setting up servers for Red Blood Online for the excuse that the game is still under development.

Recently, people's attention was pulled back to the game. Now, let us find out what kind of MMORPG Red Blood Online is like through the following exclusive interview conducted by the well-known Korean media "This is Game" with Red Blood Online dev team.

Science Fiction Combined with Classicality

TIG (This is Game): Glad to see you! A long time has passed since you unveiled Red Blood Online for the first time.

Lee Jung Wook: We have been busy with designing basic framework for the game. So nothing unique or special is worth to be revealed.

TIG: Perhaps many new players know little about Red Blood Online. Please introduce it briefly.

Lee Jung Wook: Red Blood Online is a 3D quest centric MMORPG. In the game, players can do quests and get rewards, similar to other MMORPGs. From the name of the game, you might have an idea that it is developed based on the comics Red Blood.

TIG: Are there any differences between the game and the comics?

Kim Tae Shin: Red Blood Online is set in the past. The world view of Red Blood Online can be divided into 3 parts, 2 of which are inherited from Red Blood comics and the other part describes the stories occurred before the world was reshaped.

TIG: One of the outstanding features of Red Blood Online is its world view combines science fiction and classicality. Can you share with us how the world view is demonstrated in the game?

Kim Tae Shin: The cities in the game are Chinese style. You can see the trace of the most high-tech structures in the Chinese traditional buildings.

Lim Do Shin: If we ignore the original author's standpoints, we can say the game background combines both science fiction and classicality.
