After a few years of nothing Zenonia related, Gamevil has finally officially unveiled a new installment into their hit RPG franchise called Zenonia S, which is the sixth installment. The last Zenonia game was released onto Android back in 2012 so it has been a bit since we’ve had a new Zenonia game and what’s even better is that closed beta sign-ups are now live.
Gamevil hinted at a new Zenonia release on Twitter this past Friday but everything has become official today. Unfortunately the secrecy behind this new Zenonia game hasn’t stopped, since no one outside of Gamevil had any real idea a new title was coming.
Even though it is now official, there isn’t a whole lot of details regarding Zenonia S. Even the current name is only a working title and could change before release. However one big hint as to what this game will be is from the previous working title it has, that being Zenonia Online. Possibly a more MMO-style of game perhaps? Things we do know that will be in Zenonia S includes single-player campaign mode, PvP, and real-time boss raids.
As one of our first and longest lasting titles, ZENONIA represents both nostalgia and innovation for GAMEVIL. The sixth game in the series, easily the most eagerly awaited by our players, takes the same lovable heroes into a fresh story with real-time gameplay. We can’t wait to share it with ZENONIA players, old and new, around the world. – Kyu Lee, President of GAMEVIL USA, Inc.
As far as Closed Beta requirements are concerned, so far the closed beta will be in English and Korean languages only, at least to start with. There is no mention of any sort of location specific requirements though so we can assume it is open to most regions. The closed beta sign-ups are live and available to join through the link below. Joining is basically joining the Google Groups for Zenonia S. The download for the game will be available on March 25th, 2015 and the first closed beta round will run from March 25th-28th, 2015.
If everything goes well with the next couple of rounds of beta testing, Zenonia S will see a global release onto Android sometime in June 2015. Expect a hands-on coming soon once the beta goes live.
Thanks to Chris S. for the initial tip on Friday!
