Vindictus is free-to-play 3D fast-paced fantasy hack and slash MMORPG. Vindictus is a prequel to the popular MMORPG Mabinogi and is known as Mabinogi Heroes in South Korea. It is developed by devCAT and published by Nexon.

When players start the game there are 2 classes available at the time. But more will be added later:
1.Lann:
- Lann is the first male character of Vindictus and specializes in dual-wielding spears and swords. His attacks are quick and leave his enemies breathless because of his non-stop whirlwind of slashes and thrusts. Thus, he makes for a great DPS class. But, because he relies on speed, Lann starts out wearing light armor. As he gets stronger, though, he becomes able to equip heavy armor without impeding his quick movements. Lann hails from the northwest. He left his hometown when it was destroyed by Fomors and came to Colhen to join the Crimson Blade mercenaries. He is known for his ferocity in battle.

- Lann is what many consider to be the rogue/ninja class of Vindictus. As the quickest melee combatant of the group, it is his responsibility to slice and dice while avoiding damage. He is able to use both twin swords and twin spears as weapons. It's a simple explanation but the skill of the person controlling Lann makes a large difference in combat success.

2.Fiona:
- Fiona is a balanced warrior who wields a sword and a shield. She values defense, so she uses her shield to protect herself during combat and then strikes strategically when enemies aren't expecting it. She is able to wear heavy armor from the start and later learns to wear plate armor as well. Fiona comes from the south. She treasures her privacy and boasts a solemn, serious personality, so no one knows how she came to join the Crimson Blade mercenaries. She rarely speaks about her past. Even as people marvel at her combat abilities, they can't help but wonder what secrets she's hiding.

- Fiona is best described as a tank, with great shield defense. She can utilize either a sword or a hammer as her weapon. Fiona has the ability to stun enemies allowing teammates to quickly overwhelm them.

3.Evie:
- Evie is a magic user who can wield a staff, or a battle scythe. With a staff, she is capable of casting a wide variety of spells, ranging from Ice Spear that can freeze bosses to Healing Corona which restores her allies health. Scythe Evie is capable of dealing much more direct physical damage, but gives up much of her spellcasting ability. Evie comes from the east. From her demeanor, it's likely she was raised in a noble family, but no one knows for sure. When asked, she just smiles and changes the subject. Despite her youth, Evie is a force to be reckoned with on the battlefield.

- Evie is the most versatile character in the game. Her ability to create Golems, combined with her high DPS makes her an ideal class for soloing missions. Evie is also a great support character, as she can heal her party members with Healing Corona, or buff party members with Insane Reaper or Regeneration.

(Rest that will propably be added later):

4.Karok:
- Karok can do impressive but slow combos with a Battle Pillar, but can throw the pillar and switch to Hand-to-Hand Combat which causes more damage at the cost of defense. He is considered the Brawler character with many physical special moves against monsters and bosses. He is very good at fighting bosses with his skills and stature. Unlike other characters, Karok can also grab and intercept Boss-leveled enemies and can rip apart smaller enemies that would otherwise be ungrabbable to other characters,

- Karok is a giant of a man. In the real world he would stand approximately seven feet tall and clock in at about 400 pounds. In-game, his character model towers over the other playable characters in terms of both height and width. His primary weapon when he starts out is an enormous pillar that he swings around and smashes enemies with. As the player levels him up, he will be able to swap out the pillar for a huge hammer. He also uses his fists for a number of grabs, parry and blocks. He will be about to wear the heaviest armor from level one.

5.Kai
- Kai is a male character who presumably plays the Archer role. Kai is currently not released and there is very little information about him.

- Kai is coming out in Korea in the Winter, it's plausible Kai will arrive in NA during April. Kai is an archer who can shoot from ranges such as 12 feet. He is a strong and talented character who takes a lot of focus and ability. Kai can knock a boss off of its feet with his arrows.

Combat system:
Vindictus uses the Source engine to allow players to interact extensively with the environment. Environmental objects can be destroyed or picked up and wielded as weapons. Combat is described as "kind of brutal, like a bullfight, or Monster Hunter" and will require a lot of teamwork.
