Aeria Games Announce Beginning Of DK Online Closed Beta

Aeria Games have just announced the immediate start of the closed beta period for their holiday season MMO launch, DK Online. Thousands of Aeria Games fans have been eagerly awaiting this highly anticipated release and now finally, like a phoenix from the ashes, DK Online has been made available via a closed beta sign up.

DK Online throws players into the medieval world of Litos to combat the reemergence of the malevolent ancient dragon, Kharvag. The dread dragon was once defeated by legendary heroes known as the Dragon Knights. Players are tasked with reestablishing this order and putting an end to the terror and chaos being sown through the world by Kharvag and his minions.

Players can also engage in the heavy player vs. player (PvP) component of DK Online. Each class, be it Warrior, Paladin, Sorceress, or Shadowmage, plays distinctively and provides unique benefits to groups participating in large-scale PvP modes. A trailer for one such mode, Castle Siege, has been released to commemorate the launch of closed beta. Castle Siege pits several guilds against each other in a winner-take-all battle over castle ownership. The prevailing guild reaps the rewards of taxes levied on all vendors and monster kills in the surrounding area.

The developers will be hosting a huge variety of special events to celebrate the closed beta period. Players will be rewarded for reaching certain level milestones, as well as daily and exciting battle events including specially spawned monsters.
