ThreeGates today announced that its forthcoming co-op multiplayer online action Role-Playing Game (RPG), Legends of Aethereus has reached the closed beta stage and has already let the first 800 external testers into the game. The game offers fans of hardcore PvP combat the ability to challenge other players in their own arena, while giving Hack-N-Slash Action players fun expeditions to fill their time while they level up their characters for battle.

“We’ve quietly been building Legends of Aethereus with a dedicated team of indie developers on the island of Gotland over the past year,” said Don Geyer, CEO of ThreeGates. “After a huge amount of progress over the winter, we’re finally ready to start letting players in to help us test out and refine the features and balance. We really want Legends of Aethereus to be a game for the community and are looking forward to hearing feedback and ideas about the game.”
