RaiderZ launches new website and announces exclusive alpha testing

Perfect World Entertainment today announces the long-awaited exclusive Alpha Test of RaiderZ begins on March 14, 2012.

After a stellar showing at last year's Electronic Entertainment Expo (E3) -- with tantalizing sneak peeks and exclusive demos -- the colossal monster hunting MMORPG will finally be playable by a highly limited number of North American gamers.

"Fans of action MMOs and the monster hunting subgenre of gaming are in for a one-of-a-kind experience with RaiderZ," said Yoon Im, Senior VP/GM of Game Publishing, Perfect World Entertainment. "With fast non-targeting gameplay and a classless character system, players of RaiderZ have direct control over a character's skills and play style. With challenging PvE and PvP combat, epic boss fights and a comprehensive crafting system, RaiderZ is an amazingly high quality free MMORPG and we can't wait to let gamers in."

In RaiderZ, explore the vivid and surreal land of Rendel in search of behemoths and epic monsters of legend. Find them. Slay them.

Key features include:

Exotic Real-Time Battles

An exciting, responsive real-time battle system brings players directly into the fight. Evade and block, strike and destroy. Hunting takes strategy, power and skill.

Too Close for Comfort

Monsters get personal as they grab, smash, maul and eat players alive. Rip monsters apart and use their own weapons and limbs against them in battle or for crafting, lest you be clutched, clawed, thrown and otherwise savaged.

Know Your Enemy... It Knows You

Gigantic, intelligent bosses keep even the swarthiest groups on their toes. Work together with fellow hunters to discover the weaknesses of raging, mythological beasts and employ team tactics and strategies to permanently take them down.

Unique Character System

Weapons determine skills in RaiderZ. Choose from over 350 skill combinations to build custom character unlike any other.

Open World

Track monsters in an open world and explore diverse landscapes. Carefully tread through the deepest, darkest jungles; brave the narrow passes of snow-covered mountains, and be caught by an ever-changing weather system.
