Open Beta for Cabal Online

OGPlanet, a provider of multiplayer online games, has recently announced the start of the U.S. open beta for Cabal Online, an action- oriented massively multiplayer online game.

Cabal Online already boasts nearly 1 million players in more than 12 countries throughout Asia and Europe . This open beta testing will begin on Feb. 1, 2008, and continue until the game officially launches on Feb. 21, 2008.

In Cabal Online, players are called upon to protect the people of Nevareth from an evil entity known as Cabal. Hundreds of years ago, CABAL nearly destroyed Nevareth. However, the land was saved and rebuilt by seven great masters wielding the ancient abilities of Force Power. Nearly a thousand years later, Cabal has returned, and it is up to players to master the intricacies of the Force Power and use them to save Nevareth.

Some exciting features of Cabal Online are:

• An interactive combat system that utilizes combination attacks (precision and timing sensitive) to deliver blow after blow with NPC and PvP encounters.
