"Aion: Tower of Eternity" (commonly referred to as Aion) (Korean: 아이온) is a massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) in development by NCsoft that combines PvP and PvE in a fantasy setting.
In May 2006, NCsoft announced the development of Aion and that the game would be featured at E³ 2006. NcSoft has confirmed on October 31, 2007 the Korean closed beta will start. According to the European Community Coordinator the game will be making an appearance at the Leipziger Messe Game Convention August 23-26, 2007 Germany. It has been confirmed that NCsoft will not be at the Tokyo Game Convention in 2007.
In the beginning the Balaur roamed the world of Atrea. These dragon like beings were eventually expelled by the Daeva, the God like beings created by the central God Aion. Later the Elyos and Asmodians, two warring factions along with the return of the Balaur eventually destroyed the link between the two halves of the world: The Tower of Eternity. The world now has the appearance of an “eaten apple” with the equator completely gone. Now the three factions fight for the dominance over all of Atrea.
The game is constantly taking in input from its community on what they want. This open discussion between developers and the gaming community is highly rewarding as the game continues to develop and innovate beyond expectations. Wikipedia |
