MapleStory 2 will be entering its first phase of its Korean closed beta testing later this month. Included in the CBT will be three forms of PvP: 1v1, Free-for-All and Shadow World. MapleStory 2’s first round of beta testing will run from January 21st to January 25th.
- 1v1 allows players to battle one another endlessly
- Free for All rewards the player with the most kills in a match
- Shadow World pits players against one another and against monsters to score items found nowhere else in the game

Blizzard Entertainment has announced that World of Warcraft players raised over $2.3 million to be donated to the American Red Cross to assist victims of Hurricane Sandy. The money was raised through sales of the Cinder Kitten in-game pet. 100% of the cost of the Cinder Kitten was donated to the ARC.
