Originally, the closed beta for Eternal Magic was supposed to start on July 17th. That didn’t happen; instead, the game announced a delay before the start date with the closed beta to arrive later. And now it finally has arrived, with the closed beta kicking off today. The game’s community manager has announced previously that a quick turnaround from closed beta to open beta is anticipated, although there’s not a firm timeline just yet.
The game’s closed beta feature list is, naturally, meant to entice onlookers into picking up one of the game’s access packs which contain beta access, a head start for open beta, and of course a variety of in-game items. It’s also promising in-game weddings, private mansion parties, a flexible class system, massive PvP mechanics, a MOBA mode, and wars between guilds. (Lords a-leaping and partridges in pear trees are not on the official feature list.) Curiously, this feature list does not include a mention of the game’s originally announced popularity contest to see who is the prettiest girl, so it remains to be seen if that’s still a thing. Ladies.
