At the beginning, the video depicts the future earth where the game is set, as well as its past. Besides explaining the explosion of the four mass wars and the fall of civilization, the video also integrates the various concept arts having been unveiled so far and introduces classes from different races and their fights against gigantic monsters.

In addition to the introduction of thrilling fights, the core content of ARGO - PvP scenes are also featured in the promotion video. And finally are the vehicles of different styles. ARGO's newly added areas that haven't been unveiled before can also be seen at the end of this video.

ARGO details the war between two great human races in the future for the resources of life. It carried out a test in Oct., and is scheduled to give a trial performance at G-Star 2009. Meanwhile, much game content like PvP battlefields and vehicles with more than 1 seat each is also exposed.

2 Opposing Races: Noblian and Floresslah

Two races, i.e. Noblian and Floresslah, were unveiled in the first closed beta. Specifically, Noblian is a race that hides in underground shelters and survives at the last moment of the human world, while Floresslah is a new race that evolves from human once living on the polluted ground. With Noblian back to the ground and for the sake of survival, the two races ignite the thrilling battle for the mineral of life - "Earthdium".

The Floresslah are the nature-inspired rivals of the machinist Noblians, devoted to protecting mankind from the ravages of technology. Their army is broken up into a multitude of classes, including Tauri, Defenders, Elementarists, Warlocks, Saggitarii, Rogues, Shamans, and Druids. These classes harness the natural magic of the world to keep the Noblians at bay as the war for control of the element Earthdium rages. The humans of millennia past ruined the world through their abuse of technology, and the Floresslah will stand to the last warrior to keep history from repeating itself.

After selecting the race to engage in, players can then choose from among 8 classes under 4 categories.

ARGO also introduces a powerful character setting feature, which allows players to carry out customization in many aspects, such as the skin color, hairstyle, face, eyebrows, eyes and body shape. But there're not so many hairstyles for players to choose.

Distinctive backpack system and movement methods

Both Noblians and Floresslahs will use backpacks (Floresslahs' backpack is called a bucket) which are fueled by cores and may give its users +3 attack or defense bonuses. When the backpack is open, some cores will be consumed when players do some corresponding actions.

In the awakening state, players' jumping ability will be improved and even a double jump can be performed, but currently, the double jump seems useless. Moreover, player can move by using personal movement tools, such as the widely-used multiplayer fighting vehicle which can hold 1-4 people and can attack with its built-in machine-gun. In the second closed beta test, players are also allowed to ride on the multiplayer fighting vehicle to kill monsters and level up their characters, but they are unable to use it until they reach Level 30. Up until now, no one has managed to meet the level requirement during the short-term CBT.

The mount's appearance will change in accordance with different races. Made from alloy and metal, the mounts for Noblians look very modern and fashionable, while the mounts for Floresslahs look a bit bionic and some even look like fish in appearance.
