Online game publisher Wicker Interactive announced the launch of SuBa Games, a portal for free-to-play MMOs. The platform will feature unified login access and a unified monetary system for all of its games.

Based in Toronto, the North American publishing group announced its formation and a partnership with Korean developer Yedang Online earlier this week. The first product to be available on the new platform will be Yedang's ACE Online, which will start its closed beta on August 18, 2008. PristonTale and PristonTale 2, both also Yedang games, will be released in later this year.

Ace Online is an MMO 3D space shooter enabling players to pilot personalized aircrafts in air battles across interplanetary environments. Players can upgrade their crafts by acquiring skills, weapons, engines, radars, and other attributes.

Originally released in Korea in 2001 and in Europe in 2004, PristonTale is a fantasy-style MMORPG that has so far picked up over 1.5 million users. Wicked Interactive will take over the international servers for the game, providing technical updates and new customer support features for the existing PristonTale community,

PristonTale 2: The Second Enigma, which has been in development for almost four years and utilizes Epic Games’ Unreal Engine 2.5, launched its open beta in South Korea earlier this year where it picked up 40,000 concurrent online players in just three days. The MMORPG sequel will be released in the U.S. and Canada later this fall.

Said Wicked Interactive Stanley Yu: "We wanted to create a home destination for Wicked Interactive gamers. With all the exciting features and games we have planned for the future, gamers around the globe will soon have an awesome place to come together. It is going to be one big Wicked Interactive family!"
