LOS ANGELES, CA – April 26, 2023 – Netmarble, a leading developer and publisher of high-quality mobile games, released new content for its free-to-play PC Action MOBA game  PARAGON: THE OVERPRIME.  Players can choose  the brand new hero Drongo, experience Exploration Base, and other game improvements.

Drongo is a new ranger hero with a variety of weapons in tow, including pistols, bazookas, and grenades. Despite his limited social skills, he likes people and enjoys being the center of attention. He has agreed to join the battlefield, but only on the condition that he can take various scrap materials from the Shakkadian Empire Army and use them in his store “Drongo Goods.”

Drongo’s key skills include:

• Pistol Shot: Fires a pistol to deal Physical Damage to enemies.
   
• Rusty Boomerang: Throws a boomerang to deal Physical Damage to enemies and Slow them for a set duration. While returning, the boomerang deals True Damage to affected enemies, and Slows them for a set duration. Hitting a structure or terrain during flight returns the boomerang to the hero immediately. If the hit enemies are T-ons, the damage dealt gradually decreases.
   
• Gas Bomb: Throws a Gas Bomb that lasts for a set duration in a selected area dealing Physical Damage to enemies within range. Damage increases depending on how long enemies stay in the affected area. Enemies are also Silenced and Stunned within the area for a set period.
   
• Uranium Rounds: Drongo loads Uranium Rounds that inject Unstable Compounds into enemies upon every successful Pistol Shot. After a set duration, the Unstable Compounds explode to deal Physical Damage. This can stack and immediately explode at the max stack, dealing a certain amount of Bonus True Damage to the target. It also increases the hero's Movement Speed by a certain amount which gradually decreases over a set period.
   
• Shrapnel Bazooka (Ultimate): Drongo fires shrapnel from a bazooka to deal Physical Damage to enemies within range. The shrapnel decreases enemies' Physical Defense and Pushes them back. Nearby enemies are pushed farther back, while Drongo is also pushed backward by the bazooka's blast and becomes Unblockable.
