Proficient City's Omega Zodiac Launches On Nutaku

As part of Nutaku's efforts to branch out beyond DMM titles and "localize the most promising foreign-language titles for western gaming audiences," the company has localized Omega Zodiac, a browser-based 3D MMORPG created by Proficient City, which is known for publishing Wartune. The launch is fairly significant, as it is the first action RPG to launch on Nutaku's service.

The title features dungeon crawling gameplay in a setting that blends Greek and Norse mythology. Three classes—Archer, Knight, and Mage—are available, each with its own set of nine combo skills that have varying effectiveness against different enemy types. Other features include PvE and PvP arenas, guilds and guild battles, and five skill trees per class.

Omega Zodiac can be played now exclusively on Nutaku.com.

Matt's Take:

It's interesting to see Nutaku branch out in such a significant way and it is equally interesting to see that Proficient City went with a publisher like Nutaku for Omega Zodiac, considering it is an established publisher that just recently launched Wartune on Steam. Given the predominance of pay-to-win business models within the category of games that Omega Zodiac falls under, I am also quite interested in seeing how its business model evolves over its lifespan.
