The open beta testing for Dekaron SEA ended recently, smoothly making way for the game’s full operation beginning September 24.
Dekaron SEA is a free MMORPG hailed all over the world for its visually stunning graphics and intense gameplay. The year’s most anticipated game for Singapore, Philippines, and Malaysia, Dekaron SEA has been on open beta since September 3.
With thousands and thousands of players playing everyday, Dekaron SEA is increasingly becoming the most popular MMORPG title in the region.
Previously unavailable during the open beta testing period, Dekaron SEA will finally open the “D-Shop” during its commercial launch. “The players have been asking for us to go commercial barely a week into the OBT,” says Eric Roceles, marketing director. “[They're] really excited for us to open the D-Shop.”
The D-Shop is the in-game store where players can purchase items and consumables for their characters. “Mounts, bundled auto-pots, EXP-modifying accessories, and costumes… everything’s gonna be available for everyone to buy using ePoints converted into Dekaron Coins, the currency for the D-Shop,” Roceles explains.
Dekaron SEA is FREE for the Philippines, Singapore, and Malaysia. Anyone with a mobiusonline account can download and enjoy it. Free from subscription rates, Dekaron SEA relies on the micro-transaction business model.
“We have strategically priced the items with the players’ enjoyment in mind,” Roceles adds. “We’d rather have them enjoy the game than drain their resources. The more they enjoy the game, the more they’ll tell their friends about it.”
Dekaron SEA is a free MMORPG that tells of the epic struggle to destroy the evil brought by Karon (hence, “DE-Karon”). Players get to choose between six unique character classes to embark on adventures under threat of “Damnation. Destruction. Death.”
Uhmm, yeah, so I missed the transition from open beta to commercial thanks to this super flu going around and felling me and the entire family.
More Dekaron and Asian MMO goodness soon. Stay tuned!
