🌍 RF ONLINE NEXT — DID THEY REMOVE THE RACES? COMPLETE FACTION SYSTEM GUIDE
💡 Player's Perspective: One of the biggest concerns among veteran RF Online players is whether Bellato, Cora, and Accretia were removed. After spending time in RF Online Next, the answer is surprisingly simple: the races still exist, but their entire system has been redesigned.
🇺🇸 ENGLISH VERSION
❓ Did RF Online Next Remove the Races?
Short answer:
✅ No.
Bellato, Cora, and Accretia are still part of the game.
However, they function very differently compared to classic RF Online.
🌍 From Race System to Nation System
In classic RF Online, race selection was permanent.
Players chose:
🔵 Bellato
🟢 Cora
🔴 Accretia
And remained with that race forever.
In RF Online Next, the system has changed completely.
Around level 45, players unlock the Faction System and effectively become citizens of all three nations.
🪪 Nation IDs
Players can equip a Nation ID:
🔵 Bellato
🟢 Cora
🔴 Accretia
The active ID determines which nation you currently represent.

This directly connects:
📈 Economy
⚔️ PvP
🏰 Territorial Control
🤔 Why Did Netmarble Change It?
Classic RF Online suffered from population imbalance.
If one race became dominant:
❌ Other races lost players
❌ Competition disappeared
❌ Servers slowly died
The new system encourages healthier long-term balance by allowing players to represent different nations when needed.
🏆 Final Verdict
Despite common rumors, RF Online Next did not remove Bellato, Cora, or Accretia.
Instead, it transformed them into a more flexible nation system.
Players still participate in the classic conflict between:
🔵 Bellato
🟢 Cora
🔴 Accretia
But now have the freedom to interact with and progress within all three nations, creating a healthier environment for long-term MMO balance.
