Zhengtu Launches Beta Testing for MMORPG Juren
Chinese game company Zhengtu launched the closed beta for its latest MMORPG Juren. The test includes two versions of the game for players to choose from and the company will commercialize the more popular version while incorporating favorable elements of the other. Since the game Zhengtu was widely criticized for its potentially high virtual item costs, Juren will limit each player’s monthly spending to approximately 60 RMB ($8). In addition to the traditional MMORPG content, Juren will also embed numerous casual games such as racing and cards to increase the game’s stickiness. Source: 17173
