In RF Online gamers can create a new character. They can choose to side with the Bellato Union, the Holy Alliance Cora, or else the Accretia Empire. These 3 factions are different among each other in terms of their appearances and skills. There are also some high-level characters in action.

If gamers choose to play as the Bellato Union, the RF Online’s equivalent to humans, the characters will be tech-savvy enough to use powerful weapons. One can purchase weapons and do battle in a mech that can be upgraded with both melee and ranged armaments.

The Holy Alliance Cora elflike race of this game. The evil Accretia Empire is a robotic race. It has character designs and locations reminiscent of those in Phantasy Star Online. Review from gamers say that the game is impressive.
