Perfect World International Launches Open Beta
1:20AM Mike Fahey | Perfect World Entertainment has kicked open the doors to the beta version of Perfect World international, the English-based version of popular 3D MMORPG Perfect World II. After a successful closed beta period, they’re ready to let anyone and everyone step into the shoes of the Human, Winged Elf, or animalistic Untamed and explore the massive world on the back of their flying sword. The game features an extensive mount system which includes “the unique ability to mount and carry other players”, and what’s more fun than mounting other players? Other features of PWI include a system of alignment that allows you to follow a good or evil path, customisable clothing, large-scale PVP battles and a Marriage System, which presumably comes into play after all that player mounting. Best of all, open beta characters carry over into launch, so for all intents and purposes this is less of a beta, more of a launch while we fix things sort of situation.

A New Perfect World International Trailer
1:00PM Adam Barenblat | Yesterday we trashed the old Perfect World trailer and today they released a new one. For the record, I have nothing against the game. Anything self developed earns my respect. I will say this though, this trailer is 10 times better than the one we trashed. It seems to be a lot more action packed and that is most welcome. On that note I received an email from a fellow GDC Conference Associate today telling me that he works on the game. He thought Trailer Trash was pretty great and really appreciated the coverage. While I agree with most of the Kotaku-ites out there that Trailer Trash had its faults, I am glad to see that the makers of the game have no hard feelings. Hey, It’s all fun and games. More »
