Orange County, CA (October 25, 2007) — Today at 5:00pm PDT, servers will open at
YNK Interactive to welcome chosen registrants into the popular MMORPG (massively multiplayer
online role-playing game) for the PC, Seal Online. Until now, the game has hosted
variants in Korea, China, Japan, Taiwan, Indonesia, Hong Kong, and Thailand. But beginning
today, English-speaking fans will get to enjoy the game as well as approximately ten thousand
beta testers converge on the land of Shiltz.
Seal Online launched in February, 2002 in Korea and has since spawned versions in six
other Asian countries. With nearly four million users it has become a mainstay on the charts.
Not a typical MMORPG, Seal Online combines the adventure of searching for riches,
completing quests, and joining with friends worldwide along with a unique “Fame System” (an
increase in reputation based on heroic acts which allows the player to access special items and
bonuses) as well as in-game coupling of characters.
Seal Online will be free to play, with the option of purchasing in-game premium items to
broaden the user experience.
“We are very excited to launch the English version of Seal Online,” said Jun Lee, CEO
of YNK Interactive. “We have taken great care to ensure that the localized version is faithful to
the original.”
YNK Interactive has also announced that there will be “special surprises and spontaneous
events” throughout beta testing, which will run from 5:00pm to 11:00pm PDT on October 25th
and 26th, as well as from 5:00pm on October 27th to 7:00pm on October 31st.
