Dragon's Prophet EU testing kicks off with Friends and Family beta

You may remember Sony unveiling its next MMORPG Dragon's Prophet at last years SOE-Live. The Dragon collecting, Pokemon-ish MMO had a pretty impressive showing during the convention with promises of a revolutionary auto targeting system that gives players unprecedented control during battles. After the initial presentation however, Sony went mum and we haven't heard of any progress since then.

Until today that is, when Infernum creators of BrickForce and European publishers of Dragon's Prophecy announced the Friends and Family beta test had begun. Only a limited number of selected participants will have access to the game initially, with the focus being on refinishing the game "with a keen eye towards western tastes."

The closed beta phase is reported to begin very soon and Infernum encourages fans to keep an eye on their Facebook and Twitter for a chance to join in. You can register for the beta now on the official site here. Keep in mind this is the EU version of the game. No word yet on the NA beta.
