The action MMO Echo of Soul has today entered an open beta. As players will retain their progress, this is essentially a release.
In Asia, it is customary for Free2Play MMOs to have an “open beta” that essentially equals a release, just by another name. While a “western” open beta ends with the loss of earned progress and the MMO restarts on the release day, this is often different for Asian open betas. They are basically already a release, a so-called “soft release.” And we Europeans are slowly adopting this practice: Aeria Games is now doing the same with Echo of Soul.
The action MMO Echo of Soul has therefore “launched” today, it is released and celebrates this with a launch trailer.
