New Game World sent out word that the closed beta for its free-to-play MMORPG Immortals is now open to the public. Gamers who are interested in this game can check out the website to participate in the open beta.

“Immortals has been in stealth mode, up until today,” said Steve Wade, Vice President of Marketing and Development at New Game World, Inc. “It’s not that we didn’t want to generate buzz, we just thought it was best cross all of our “T”s and dot all of our “I”s with little hearts before making any kind of announcement.”

Here’s a bit on the game:

Immortals has its roots in Ancient Chinese Mythology and this game brings that ancient conflict to a whole new level with four races divided into two warring factions. In the Not So Closed Beta, players will have access to 4 fully customizable races: Demon, Dragon, Deity, and Human. The game is filled with challenging quests, unique titles, fame system, and even a pet system that players can start to raise and ride their pets at level 20.

Each area has a unique feel and fabulous art. The deities fly and the dragons live in an underwater realm. The action is awesome and world is incredible. The struggle for the survival of each race is the challenge facing every player. Whether chasing down and battling a mythological beast for a rare item or leading your guild into a fierce battle against an opposing force, one thing is certain, the battle will be immortal.

In more beta news, this signup page for Universe at War: Earth Assault beta test is live, urging gamers to register to participate in testing Petroglyph’s upcoming RTS game. The last date for registration is August 15.
