]]> Yes, you read that right. After almost half a year of waiting, online games fanatics will finally get the chance to play the most anticipated massively multiplayer online role-playing game in China—Chinese Paladin Online.

Here’s the lowdown from (drum roll, please) online games portal 17173:

Chinese online games developer 9you announced in Shanghai on December 12 that Chinese Paladin Online will enter closed beta test. The data of player accounts during the test will be preserved.

9you will give out 20,000 beta keys to applicants before the test. Since the game is planned to be free to play, profit from CD key selling, the giving out of beta keys will benefit the testers.

There’s not much to go on, so we have to content ourselves, at least for the meantime, with watching previews of Chinese Paladin Online like this:

]]> Well, it’s a rough estimate, since Chinese Paladin Online is still in the final stages of development, according to online games developer/publisher 9you of China. What’s sure, however, is that 9you is tweaking the game’s mechanics to give players balanced gameplay.

What’s Chinese Paladin Online? Here’s a video, check it out:

There’s more good news from 9you. In a very brief interview with China-based video games portal 17173, 9you vice president Tao Ying revealed that they are developing five new MMOs: SD Gundam Capsule Fighter Online, Crazy Speed, 9you GT, Street Live, and Concerto Gate II.

If the list of Top 15 Most Expected Online Games in China is to be believed, the popularity of South Korean-made Ragnarok Online 2: Gate of the World is starting to flounder.

Is it because of its delayed release? Last year, the online gaming markets in several Asian countries were abuzz with news about the release of Ragnarok Online 2 that had been originally slated for December 2007 (at least in the Philippines).

Closing the gates to the refurbished Rune Midgard in the ancient land of China are three upstarts, namely Dungeon and Warrior, SGC Online, and Fun Online. Ragnarok Online 2, or RO2, has been knocked down in the rankings from 9th place to 12th place.

Here’s this week’s Top 15 Most Expected Online Games in China:

1. Chinese Paladin Online, developed by Softstar and operated by 9you

2. Jian Wang 3, developed and operated by Kingsoft

3. Cang Tian Online, developed by Wemade and operated by Shanda

4. Wushuang Online, developed by Koei and operated by Tianxi

5. Cibi, developed and operated by Perfect Space

6. Fantasy Journey Online, developed by Lingo Soft and operated by 9you

7. Dragonball Online, developed by Ntl-inc

8. Aion, developed by NCsoft and operated by Shanda

9. Dungeon and Warrior, developed by NEOPLE and operated by NHN

10. SGC Online, developed and operated by Gamlaxy International

11. Fun Online, developed by Tqdigital and operated by Netdragon

12. Ragnarok Online 2, developed by Gravity and operated by 9th City

13. Gear War Online, developed by CYKAN and operated by DDTONG

14. Cross Fire, developed by SmileGate and operated by Tencent
