Mabinogi (Korean: 마비노기) is a massively multiplayer online role-playing game released by South Korean Game Distributing Company Nexon, and developed by devCAT studio. Although the name of the game is taken from a Welsh anthology of legend, the settings for the game are loosely based on Irish mythology.
The game engine
features hand-painted textures stylized with edge detection outlining.
The game world is developed continuously, through the release of
important patches
(referred to as "Generations" and "Seasons") that introduce new areas,
additional features such as pets and new skills, and advancement of the
storyline. The user interface is simple and designed in the likeness of Microsoft Windows' task bar.
Mabinogi was built on a hybrid Value
Added Services model (which varies slightly for each game localization)
that allows free play and the subscription of paid packages, purchased
through the game shop.[1]
In South Korea, beginning with the Chapter 3 patch, Mabinogi changed to
micro-transactions. It now allows 24-hour free play and the Item Shop
only offers items and subscriptions for added options.
The game service is currently available in South Korea, Japan, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Mainland China, North America, Oceania, Europe, Israel, and most recently, Turkey & Russia.[2]
The North American closed beta test began on January 30, 2008, at 2pm PST.[3] The pre-open beta only available to Fileplanet users was released on March 5, 2008.[4]
The full open beta was released on March 6, 2008, at 3PM PST. The North
American localization of Mabinogi was officially released on March 27,
2008.[5]
During the 2007 Gstar game show in Seoul, South Korea, Nexon announced an Xbox 360 version of Mabinogi.[6][7][8]
However, in September 2009, they had announced that, even though the
development was finished, the release of the console version has been
indefinitely suspended after evaluations of the game through their business decisions.[9] - Where to buy it - mabinogi.nexon.net/Support/ClientDrivers FREE FANTASY LIFE!
