South Korea next blockbuster MMORPG may be coming in the form of Cabal 2, the ESTsoft developed and published video game is set for release this December. Cabal 2 is a vast free-to-play adventure based upon a world of magic, warfare, and eye glazing scenery.
The world of Cabal 2 was all made possible by dual efforts of ESTsoft and Crytek’s CryEngine 3 technology. Cabal 2 was set to release in South Korea and build on the on the success of it’s highly regard predecessor, Cabal, which attracted millions of fans from around the globe.
Cabal 2 will mark the first time a MMORPG has used the CryEngine 3, although several more titles across Asia will be using the engine as well. During a recent G-Star games expo in South Korea, four more MMORPG created using CryENGINE 3 were featured at the show. The expo more importantly highlighted the engine and the reason many developers working in this very competitive genre have their eye out.
Cabal 2 was originally set for a five year development but was extended to over seven to ensure the best decision were made during development. The choice to CryEngine 3 was made much later on in the development cycle. Cabal 2 will improve on it’s predecessor by offering more Area of Effect skills and by doing away with the “dash” skills and instead offer mounts to increase movement speed.
