Mabinogi Announces Open Beta
Nexon America has announced that its newest free-to-play MMO Mabinogi will enter open beta on March 5th. A 24-hour play period exclusive to FilePlanet.com users will kick the beta off, following which users can sign up at the main site.
Nexon says more than 7 million users already play Mabinogi in Asia, and notes that 30,000 players participated in the recent closed beta for North America. The game promises its users a "fantasy life" rooted in Celtic and Welsh mythology -- in addition to more traditional MMO activities like quests and moster battles, players can also take jobs, perform farming duties and write and share music, with strong social components.
Mabinogi also offers a distinct "standardized" time feature, that allows users who play longer to gain daily bonuses. Avatars also age on a weekly basis, growing taller as they get older until they reach age 17, and can gain ability points up to the age of 25.
