Cabal Online Enters Open Beta at ZZima.com

February 24, 2010

Nival Network is pleased to announce the launch of its open beta test for Cabal Online. The popular free to play MMORPG developed by ESTsoft Corp. is being published on the ZZima.com social network. On February 23rd, Defender of the Fatherland Day, throngs of eager Russian-speaking players were able to begin their adventures in the game's distinctive magical world.

Science fiction and fantasy are so closely intertwined in Cabal Online that it is impossible to separate one from the other.  Heroes are armed with swords created from metal, but with help of laser technology.  They travel around the land of Nevareth on astral boards and motorcycles, fighting futuristic robots, giant insects and even Minotaurs. In this imaginative domain, magic towers coexist with railways, and arcane portals with majestic sailing ships.

To learn more about the amazing universe of Cabal Online, visit the official website at http://www.zzima.com/cabal for lots of interesting and useful information as well as screenshots and wallpapers for your desktop.

Creative users can also contribute to the website, and receive rewards for doing so. During the open beta, there will be competitions to write manuals on topics such as first steps in the game, how to select a class and how to make money at lower levels. Submissions will be accepted at cabal@zzima.com until the end of February.  Winners will be chosen by the Cabal Russia team.

Nival Netwok thanks the many participants in the closed beta test who submitted detailed bug reports and helped make the game better. Due to their efforts, Cabal Online is now available in all its glory. Come join the fun!
