WEBZEN, a global developer and publisher of free-to-play games, has today begun to lift the lid on what to expect from MU Legend, the upcoming hack ‘n’ slash MMO and long-awaited follow-up to MU Online.

MU Legend features unparalleled gameplay that not only caters to the millions of MU fans from the past decade, but is also easy for newcomers to pick up and enjoy.

Fast-paced & action-driven gameplay

Directly from the start, MU Legend empowers its players with an extremely action-driven and fast-paced gameplay experience, in best hack ‘n’ slash tradition. Unlike most current hack ‘n’ slash games, all classes in MU Legend possess powerful area of effect skills right from the start, making levelling a truly thrilling and satisfying experience for players of all levels.

Character and skill customization

While enabling every player to feel powerful from the very first level, MU Legend continues to evolve the player’s gameplay experience by offering deep and sophisticated character and skill customizations. Players utilizing these customizations can embark on their own journeys, whether they want to be a lone-wolf boss killer or a party’s greatest supporter.

It’s not just MU Legend’s gameplay that excels: players can expect a huge range of different PvE and PvP options that will cater to all play styles, as well as offer content that can either be completed in a few minutes or played for hours at a time. With an extensive range of systems, like pets and gear enhancement, users can customize their experience in every way possible.

Players can still sign up for the beta at http://mulegend.webzen.com. Beta keys are still available on some press sites, but quantity is limited.

Richard Moon, Head of Global Business at WEBZEN, commented: “With the massive success of the beta key giveaways through our press partners, we are very excited to be highlighting some of MU Legend’s unique aspects.” He continued: “We have been working hard to bring this closed beta to the global audience and are incredibly excited for October 25^th.”
