AUGUST 03, 2012<\/strong>— Joymax, leading online game developer and publisher widely known for Silkroad Online and Digimon Masters, today announced the hotly anticipated date for the open beta of Knight Age.\u00a0 Players will be able to once again mount up and enter into a daring combat in this fantasy MMORPG beginning August 28th<\/sup>.\u00a0 To pre-register for the open beta, squires simply need to have a Joymax account, which can be created at http:\/\/bit.ly\/KnightAge0803<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“We learned some tough but valuable lessons about both the popularity of Knight Age and our ability to support a massive number of people who want to dive right into the game when we launch,” said Nam-Chul Kim, CEO of Joymax.\u00a0 \u201cWe\u2019ve also used the mountain of user feedback acquired through our forums and Facebook to make numerous small adjustments that will streamline the beta experience for everyone.\u201d<\/p>\n

Knight Age was first introduced to the public via closed beta July 10th<\/sup> through 17th<\/sup>.\u00a0 Its initial launch generated so much traffic, the Knight Age website had to be temporarily shut down to control the massive influx of visitors.\u00a0 To ensure all interested players can jump straight into the action come August 28th<\/sup>, the Knight Age client will be up on the site to download on August 14th<\/sup> and can be pre-loaded any time before OBT begins. All players that have joined during Closed Beta Test only need to update the patch by launching their current game.\u00a0 Skip the long wait by having your client ready before open beta begins!<\/p>\n

The Open Beta will also introduce a variety of new content that was unavailable during closed beta, including the much anticipated 50 versus 50 guild battles.\u00a0 The lauded Pupa system, which allows players to raise, breed, and mould their companion pets into the ultimate fighting machines, has also been expanded.\u00a0 Pupa can be specialized in a variety of way, including becoming monster hunting champions or a lean, mean PVP machine.<\/p>\n

Knight Age, a 3D fantasy MMORPG, will take players through a vast world of Knights battling against a malicious God.\u00a0 Featuring a unique riding-action where\u2014unlike other MMORPGs\u2014Knights can perform elaborate attack skills on mobile mounts. Knight Age provides a one-of-a-kind combat system that is carried out on rides with each providing different types of power-ups!<\/p>\n

This is all in addition to Knight Age\u2019s numerous game feature, such as the colossal PVP system pitting 50 allied knights against 50 opposing knights, the Battle for Excalibur where players battle against 100 other players for the legendary sword, as well as the Pupa pet system where raising a strong companion.<\/p>\n
