Crush Online Open Beta Begins Today

Crush Online's Open Beta has begun; players can sign up by visiting the game's website and jump right into the game. The test phase begins ahead of Crush Online's unclear September 2016 launch—there's no exact release date.

The game is looks like a traditional MOBA at face value, but is a blend of MOBA and MMO: a game with MOBA-stylized combat in a persistent universe. Three nations wage war, vying for territory, so players create their character and align themselves with one nation to start scooping up land in the name of patriotism. Crush Online's war isn't a bloodbath but more of a colorful balloon party thanks to a and bold palette in a lighthearted aesthetic.

I played briefly, and the the game's world does feel like an enormous MOBA-map with an MMPORPG questing system. I'll have to play more to get an overall feel for the game.
