MU: Origin, the mobile spin-off of Webzen’s MU Online, will start closed beta testing on Android devices later this month. Players can sign up on the website for a chance to be admitted to the January 25th CBT, although only a few thousand will be chosen.
If you’re looking for an ultra-casual mobile MMO, MU: Origin might be it. The game advertises itself as “easy to play, easy to level, and easy to dominate” with endless levels to explore.
MU: Origin has been out in Korea since last April and has topped the charts as the highest-grossing title on both Android and iOS since then. It’s also reportedly doing very well in China, racking up 120 million registered accounts. The game will release in the west in spring 2016 on Google Play and will expand to include iOS devices at a later date.
