14 March 2013 - Hampshire, UK/... It’s
Infernum’s great pleasure to announce the Closed Beta for its
upcoming MMORPG
Dragon’s Prophet will start in just a couple
of days, opening the doors to four breathtaking zones for an
exclusive selection of players on Tuesday the 19th of March.
The question “When will the Closed Beta start?” has
been asked numerous times by the rapidly growing Facebook and
Twitter community. We can now finally answer the call: from the
19th March on, anyone who manages to secure a Closed Beta key will
be able to play Dragon’s Prophet. However, it’s not too
late for newcomers, who can still register on the official
website[JG1] and spread the word for the chance to
experience a vast, immersive world and tame, ride and fight
alongside an immense variety of dragons.
For Closed Beta, the doors of
Auratia, the world of Dragon’s Prophet, will be
opened to a limited number of participants. However, there will be
further opportunities to play the game during upcoming stress
tests, granting a wider pool of access to allow Infernum to test
the stability and performance of its European servers. Feedback
from players on the
official forum will also be
an important factor for our Game Improvement team, helping to
ensure that the next steps for Dragon’s Prophet are as smooth
as possible. These special operations will be announced early
enough to give Dragon’s Prophet enthusiasts enough time to
prepare themselves.
Dragon’s Prophet will initially be available in English,
with German and French versions following later on in the beta
process. The lucky few who are granted beta access will have the
chance to explore the two starting areas,
Bakra and
Satuma, and two additional zones which will soon be
introduced.
The entire Infernum team is now working around the clock in
anticipation of the Open Beta, which will be announced within the
next weeks.
