Dublin, Ireland – Gala Networks Europe, one of the leading free-to-play games publishers and operator of the www.gPotato.eu portal, now started to distribute access keys to the upcoming Closed Beta Testing of its martial arts MMORPG Age of Wulin. Public beta testing will start by the very beginning of 2013, all codes will grant free access to Age of Wulin.

Beta key distribution will happen through various channels. Amongst the first players to receive beta keys are the participants and lucky winners of an in-game event held for players in Allods Online. Additional key giveaways will be coming up soon.
At a later stage, Gala Networks Europe will reveal more details about the public beta testing and launch schedules.

“We are currently working on updating our time and development schedules. Due to the on-going development process in China and additional and important updates being implemented in the latest Chinese version of Age of Wulin, we now have been informed that the European version will see about 30 % more content than the current development version we have been working on so far. This is obviously great and exciting news, and we of course want to bring players the latest version and contents of the game. However, this also requires additional development activities. In terms of localisation, for example, this means we’re now facing 1 million additional characters to be translated. This is leading towards the full launch now happening in 2013, but we are now starting to distribute the first batches of closed beta keys affirming that the closed beta testing will start by the beginning of the new year”, explains Nicolas Pajot, CEO of Gala Networks Europe.

“Of course, our aim of delivering the highest quality possible does not change, and we will invest all necessary resources to deliver the best possible free to play gaming experience.”

In its early beta testing stages, Age of Wulin will be accessible in the English language on European servers for all players. Later on, the French and German localised versions will also become available.

Additionally, the Age of Wulin forums will be opened soon for all groups and players to form and join guilds. Further details on guilds and the unique guild features Age of Wulin offers will be revealed very soon.

Age of Wulin is an epic free to play MMORPG set in Imperial China which revolves around the lore and practice of Chinese martial arts within the Wuxia universe. Gamers can join eight different Sects, each with their own unique style of combat, and experience deep character development. Players will not be bound by traditional level systems, but will instead have the freedom to choose how they want to master their character by acquiring skills.

Freedom of choice is a theme that runs throughout Age of Wulin as players can choose professions and whether they wish to live good, evil, or in between. The choices made will ultimately determine many different outcomes and provide for a personalized story, which is unique for every player. Age of Wulin will offer a unique MMORPG experience in a gigantic open world, including ground breaking new PvP and PvE features.

Lutz, U.S.A. — Artix Entertainment, the indie game development studio that creates and publishes download-free, browser-based RPGs to over 150 million registered players, announced the public Beta release for Oversoul, its newest PVP MMORPG, scheduled to start  October 31, 2012. The public Beta release will be open to all players.

Oversoul is an all new PVP MMORPG with unique gameplay that uses a system of battlecards to battle against opponents. The battles are strategic, so players won’t be able to use just any card against any opponent. Each monster has its own strengths and weaknesses and it’s up to the players to find out what they are and use their battlecards effectively to win the fight. Players who successfully win against one opponent will find that the same strategy will often fail against other opponents.

Players will be able to engage in PvP (Player vs. Player) battles or they can engage in PvE (Player vs. Environment) battles against monsters. Winning a battle against a monster will allow the players a chance to possess it and play the game as that monster. But that’s easier said than done. To possess rare monsters, players will have to find them first, win a battle against them, and then get a chance to possess them.

The combat system is turn-based strategy. At the start of a new battle, players will be dealt five cards. Cards can be attacks, defense, or specials. Each deck will have only a small percentage of specials cards. Specials allow for fun game mechanics such as turning all of a player’s attack cards into block cards or causing the enemy to lose one turn, or turning a defense card into hit points.

Seoul, Korea — Joymax, an online game developer and publisher widely known for longstanding quality titles including Silkroad Online and Digimon Masters, revealed on October 23, details of the battle, power, and glory behind the legendary “Excalibur” in the recently released MMORPG, Knight Age. Players can start now by downloading and playing the game for free here.

“Excalibur” – the legendary sword filled with mystical power – is a well known fable and beloved story, and within Knight Age it exists to bring both power and glory to the most deserving knight. But players shouldn’t expect this legendary weapon to sit idly for passerby’s to test its worthiness; in Knight Age, to wield the legendary Excalibur players must fight for it.

Excalibur represents three key components in Knight Age: the battle for the weapon, the power it imbues to its wielder, and ultimately its glory. The battle for Excalibur is a PVP battle against 100 knights that begins once per day when the elusive sword appears in the middle of a mysterious lake. All participating players, regardless of their level, will be transported to a special battlefield in which the goal is to run to the center of the lake and successfully pull out the Excalibur sword.

However, this task is neither easy nor possible on its first try. A mixture of talent and choice will help as players continue attempting to free Excalibur. Additionally, the player must also defend it from other on-coming players. Whether by luck or skill, the end reward for pulling free the legendary Excalibur will be worth the battle scars.

The one to hold Excalibur is given with a special buff known as “Blessed by the Sword.” This buff will allow the wielder to land a critical hit for every swing the wielder makes and also naturally heals the wielders’ health and mana points even during battle.

This power is envied by many and can prove too much to handle by a single knight; thus it will return to its place in the center of the lake for the next day. Not all is lost when the sword leaves the master’s side, because the knight will be bestowed with glory through a title for once possessing the legendary weapon.

Though many titles exist within Knight Age for everything, from leveling up to making friends, only those who have brandished the Excalibur are given the honor to hold the title “Blessed by the Sword.” Titles are not simply names but they also hold power within. Owning the rare title “Blessed by the Sword” earns players special buffs to their stats which are permanent to their character, not to mention pretty awesome to show off your achievement to others.

For those who wish to experience the legendary Excalibur or prove their worth in a battle against a hundred strong, now is the time to join Knight Age through the Knight Age’s Official Website at http://www.joymax.com/knightage/. Players should also visit the Knight Age Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/officialknightage which is chocked full of daily news, tips and in-game images.

At night-time, the capital of Superion glows with a spooky Halloween theme. Players encounter the NPC witches Lucy and Helemi who haunt the town in their ghostly carriage. They both offer Maestia players amulets and rings to improve various character attributes.

Adventurers who successfully defeat monsters in the new spawn events also gain access to the much sought-after boxes. A witch’s outfit, a skeleton suit and additional Grim Reaper pets are sure to give players goosebumps.

October 12, 2012–  Joymax, leading online game developer and publisher widely known for longstanding quality titles including Silkroad Online and Digimon Masters, today unveiled the second major update to their fan favorite fantasy MMORPG, Knight Age. Arriving next week, Siege Warfare will add a new dimension to gameplay and present a new PVP challenge to players.

Siege Warfare: a colossal PVP battle between the Orders of Knights (Guilds) as they battle to take over a castle is the most intense PVP experience Knight Age has offered to date. These weekly skirmishes take place every Sunday, and leaders of each Order must apply for the chance to compete at nearby NPCs.

Orders must pool their gold resources together not only to be eligible for the fight, but also for position – bribes, known officially as bids – are taken by the Siege NPC and the highest “bidder” will win the closest spot to the castle. A closer spot does not guarantee victory: teamwork can overcome a less skilled Order, even if they are closer.

So, how does one become a victor? The warfare lasts an hour and it is up to the players to earn as many points within this allotted time. Points are earned by touching the Crystal – the longer a team maintains contact with the Crystal, the more points they are awarded. However, being in direct contact with the Crystal also leaves the Knights open to direct attacks. Fight or conquer? It is up to each Order to choose their war strategy.

The ultimate reward for winning the Siege is becoming the Lord of Tintagel Castle. Not only are all members of the winning Order of Knights given access to this exclusive fortress, the leader controls all taxes placed upon the people in the Knight Age world. Their choice to increase or lower taxes will directly affect the in-game economy.

Higher taxes may depress the economy and heighten all item prices, though lower taxes may provide poor income, so finding a good balance will be a challenge. Inside Tintagel Castle is also an exclusive merchant found nowhere else in the kingdom, who sells high level items found only inside Tintagel. These rewards can be used to defend their keep during the next Siege Warfare, when the castle once again becomes neutral territory.

Conquering a castle won’t be easy, but the rewards quickly add up; is your Order royal enough to withstand temptation? With plenty of events, regular content updates, Knights will have more and more to do within the realm of Knight Age. Sign up now for a free account at Knight Age’s Official Website.

As always, Knight Age’s thriving community can be accessed via the game’s forums, or on the official Knight Age Facebook with over 17,000 fans or on Twitter @KnightAgeOnline.

To get a foothold in this on-coming battle, players must begin their preparation starting today by visiting the Knight Age Official Website http://www.joymax.com/knightage/.

Hamburg, Germany — Mail.Ru Games, publisher of internationally successful online games such as Legend: Legacy of the Dragons, Allods Online and Gunblade Saga, is really turning up the heat on players of the action-packed online strategy game RiotZone. It all kicks off in the second week of October, with extra battle rewards. From the middle of October on, it’s one event after another, from PVP events, to epic confrontations. The glorious finale will be the eagerly-awaited opening of the Auction House.

The Face of the Enemy

From the middle of the month, mercenaries can look forward to a new daily mission and PVP battle. Here’s a highlight from the latter: The infamous faction leaders, who usually prefer to pull the strings from behind the scenes, will step out of the shadows and take command of their troops in person for this strategically important battle.

What’s more, two other events promise exciting stories, extra rewards, and other high-tech upgrades for brand-new items that will be introduced to the game. Cunning commanders can also sell surplus munitions in the Auction House that will be opening soon, or get hold of the rare upgrades they need there themselves.

Fight for a Good Cause

In the MMO RiotZone, two competing organizations go up against the rule of the cruel Dictator. The fighters of the Scarlet Alliance, who want to establish the rule of the people, and the Crown Coalition, which stands for a cool-headed, rational approach. As commander of a mercenary squad, the player enters the service of one of these organizations. You’ll have to intercept convoys, set up ambushes, and target the Dictator’s entourage in order to weaken the regime.

Alongside all that, the followers of the enemy faction need to be kept in check. After all, when the Dictator falls, the right people need to come to power. There’s no time to rest, not even between battles. Commanders have to build up the camp and train their units, keeping track of their finances, and making new munitions.

From level 5, players have access to a wide range of exciting PvP features, such as gathering resources, group battle, or raids behind enemy lines. The outcome of the multi-player battle determines who will take control of the game zone.

Berlin, Germany — Publisher Gameforge has thrown open the gates to a new region for Runes of Magic players, Chrysalia. The region was shaped by the power of the four elements and is home to a new raid instance, the Kulech Bones Nest.

In this challenging dungeon, groups of up to twelve players can enter into battle against belligerent ant creatures, gruesome maggots and an evil ant queen. The latest episode of the RoMcast is also out today and shows scenes from the region, giving a closer insight into the new content.

Chrysalia lies in the north of the Taborean continent, a region carved by deep canyons that can only be traversed using the rickety bridges swaying above the drops. The region is inhabited by two ant-like races, the Garon and the Kulech.

The Garon are peaceable sorts and friendly to adventurers; the Kulech however, are to be feared and only approached if you are well equipped and prepared for a savage battle. The path to the Bones Nest instance will lead players by the serene Sanctuary of Balance, past mysterious investigation camps and production plants, through to the bloody battlefield. This is where the best of the best come to take on the Ant Queen and her hordes of minions.

You can find the latest episode of the ROMcast below:

NGames revealed on September 21, 2012, details of the wickedly challenging Devil Cave – a tough, disturbing night time variation of Valhalla for teams of players to tackle in Naruto and Bleach inspired MMORPG, Pockie Ninja II Original.

The world of Pockie Ninja II Original isn’t all about peace and tranquillity. Doomed, evil places are scattered throughout the land, the most evil being the the Valhalla sector of Devil City. Visiting Valhalla at night is not a feat for faint hearted ninjas, though it is a trip brimming with rewards for those bold and brave enough to tackle it.

9 Stages, 9 Bosses – Plenty of death

Valhalla at night is the newest dungeon to hit Pockie Ninja II Original. Each of the nine stages are guarded by viscous demon bosses, commanding armies of soldiers and possessed Naruto and Bleach characters ready to do their bidding. The nine stages are tough, but players well prepared for the battle will reap massive EXP rewards.

Stages increase in difficulty as ninjas progress, with higher and higher level requirements in place to protect players from attempting challenges too extreme for their characters. The easiest stage, “Endless Sea Forest”, is available from lvl.26, while the most difficult, “The Judicial Island”, requires lvl.106 to enter.

The harder the stage, the richer the rewards. Besides the EXP players earned from each stage, there will also be chances to win new rare equipment, outfits and special blades.

Solo players need not apply

Only teams of ninjas are accepted into Valhalla at night, which can be accessed a maximum of three times a day via the guards at the gates of Devil City. The punishing dungeon has a ban on potions – none are allowed. The only way to restore HP and Chakra is to rest. Players organise themselves on a character selection wheel and take it in turns to battle the demons of each stage; defeated players will be replaced by another until the end of the stage or everybody is dead.

Tactics play a siginifcant role in successfully navigating the multiple stages of Valhalla. Players must allow the weakened members of their team to rest for long as possible in order to guarantee victory.

Players unable to gather a team can choose their teammates from a lobby of solo players at the Valhalla entrance.

NGames, an online games publisher, has announced a newly added advanced hunting system for One Piece-inspired pirate MMORPG, Pockie Pirates.

Launched late August, Chapter 3: The Royal Seven has flooded the world of Pockie Pirates with brand new islands, dangerous new adventures and powerful new crew members – as well as introducing a host of gameplay improvements.

Continuing the improvements is the newly added high reward Advanced Hunting System event – one of the the most intense forms of group PvP in the Pockie Pirates world. Available between 10:00 AM – 7:00 PM every day, pirates battle it out with each other across new hunting islands for a chance to win massive EXP and Bounty rewards.

Upon entering the Advanced Hunting Island, groups of pirates square off against one another for the right to hunt EXP rewards and wild beasts. Players are split into two affiliations – attackers and defenders. Each side must use their combined stats and skills to outwit one another in a constant on-going battle.

Winners are granted access to the defensive hunting team – a group of successful players who are allowed to automatically search the Hunting Island for massive bags of EXP and roaming beasts. When caught, wild beasts directly increase the winners overall bounty, which scales according to the level of each individual player on the team.

Pirates in the hunting team must defend their privilege to hunt against new challengers. The defending team remains in place until all of their resources are spent.

With the speedy release of Dragon’s Call II (abbreviation as “DC II”), when some veteran players of Dragon’s Call (abbreviation as “DC”) are still living under a rock, DC II Open Beta Test is even slated to be launched on 22:00 September 25 (EDT), after this period of successful Closed Beta Test, game adjusted, bugs fixed and system improved, owed a lot to the enthusiastic participation by loyal players of DC, growing up with the official.

One of game journalists in Gamedp, Melisande questions the official’s behavior, thus arousing a heat debate in the game forum. In her point of view, DC II is the same game with DC. “Is it even a sequel? Has the ‘story’ progressed? Or is this DCII more of a new and improved DC? Looks different, but the same? Like Diablo 1 and 2, there is a progression, yes? Specifically in terms of the storyline.”

For most Gamedp players, they are satisfied with DC, since it was born 3 years ago, and after the comparison and contrast between DC & DC II, actually, DC II is not a simple sequel. Rokkumon, the community manager of the game points out “Just because a storyline progresses doesn’t mean it’s literally a sequel.”

Players even argue about “Beginning of the End”, the slogan of DCII, which means DCII is another beginning of DC end. Some are disagree with the title. “Why not make it a separate one, another slogan and all, and let DC slowly descend into the abyss.”

However, the truth is that, DC II based off all the base lore of DC even if with stuff added, new systems, and a different style of play in how the battle system and stuff like that.” Both do have the connection and disconnection, while the world is much more beautiful in DCII. But it does matter much that it is sequel or prequel.

Though the argument is still on, the official is moving on, and has announced the CBT end time is 10:00 pm Sept. 23th. Also, players who recharge during CBT could give 110% return but the server will be wiped before OBT kicks off.

Dubbed as a unique MMO with dynamic and strategic gameplay, “Rakion” will have a major update: new armors, cells, rings, necklace, stage, and a rumored game update that brings back the nostalgia of a classic MMO.

Here are our top three of the things to watch for “Rakion” this September.

1. Grab the new costume for Free

That’s right it’s free! All you have to do is leave a comment on Rakion Facebook Fanpage and Twitter. There will be ten lucky winners with this unique Goat costume for their character. The costume is available in three wearable parts:

• The Goat Costume itself
• The Horn (Accessory)
• And a Backpack (accessory)

There are also rentable version goat costume items in the Event Shop and as a Login Gauge Reward. If you want the permanent version, you can purchase the item in the Item Shop.

2. Don’t have a powerful Basilisk? You might have a chance

A new ex-item “Unique Creature Bag” is available in the Shop. This cell capsule has all rare Cells not purchasable anymore. However the Cell is random, it might take a few tries to get that Cell you’re dreaming to own. You will get one random creature from the list below:

• White Dragon
• Basilisk
• Golden Wolf
• White Wolf
• Random Point Bag 

 3. New User Interface

Rakion’s user interface will be improved. More concise, more clear.  Please check details in the homepage.

4. New armor: FrozenBlue

We guys here loved the unique armors and weapons in Rakion. So much that we equipped only the armors for the looks, and not because of the stats.

One of the best designed armor set was the Frozen set which has that unique “Cool” feeling for our character. A new armor FrozenBlue will be released and judging from the screenshot, our “Cool” Ice warrior is literally a shining Ice knight wearing this set.

Frozen Blue Set: Made out of magical object with the essence of the strongest cells and the freeze magic of the head magician. It’s way better than current frozen set.

Aren’t you excited for “Rakion” this September? We can’t wait for the next update. There will be more surprises.

Santa Clara, U.S.A. — Transform your web browsing experience with Starlight Story from Aeria Games, a leading global publisher of free-to-play online games. The massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) will play host to a wondrous world in which magic and technology vie for supremacy, and players will be caught in the middle as they embark on a quest to prevent calamity.

Starlight Story revolves around a journey to save a dying planet, which requires a finite natural resource to survive. With that resource dwindling, the planet is on a collision course with total annihilation, and players must find a way to prevent impending doom.

To aid them in that task, players have access to Superstar transformations, allowing them to assume the form of previously slain bosses. These transformations are far more than cosmetic, temporarily giving players significant stat boosts.

Pet companions are integral to combat as well, fighting by the player’s side from the very beginning of the game. Pets also share in the Superstar transformations, taking on all-new shapes alongside their masters.

Mounts inStarlight Story are also for more than vanity; once equipped to a character these mounts provide stat boosts as well as the expected movement speed increases, and they also stay active during combat.

Starlight Story is browser-based and will not require a download, and like all Aeria Games titles, it will be free-to-play. Players can sign up for closed beta now at http://starlightstory.aeriagames.com.
