Nexon Europe has announced the release-date for Vindictus new characters Karok and Thor, that will finally arrive on the 29th February. Karok, the Barbarian from the south and newest playable hero of Vindictus, has nearly finished his journey to Colhen. However, instead of just coming alone, he has the huge Raid-Boss “Thor” in pursuit.

Karok is a giant warrior who has ventured to the lands of Colhen and Rocheste from the south. Shrouded in a mysterious past, Karok dwarfs other playable characters by a considerable margin, and although friendly in nature, packs a phenomenal force when he is crossed. His tremendous power allows him to parry bosses, hurtle enemies afar, and cause devastation with one swing of his giant pillar.

In the sewers of Rocheste, lies something very sinister: a house-sized, three mouthed, thunderbolt-throwing composite being, known as Thor. This monster is a force of pure evil manifested in its largest of forms, so prepare yourself for the most strategically advanced and toughest Raid-Boss yet.

In addition to celebrate and hail our new Barbarian, Nexon are offering something very interesting to players who have yet to visit Vindictus between the 1st and the 21st February: the chance to get more out of their time, with an exclusive “Welcome Back” surprise, which appears after two hours play.
