Audition. No, not the awesome horror film Takashi Miike. I’m talking about the new hit MMO dance/rhythm game. We mentioned this game in a previous article. Developed by T3 Entertainment (a sister company to Hanbitsoft), the game was originally made available in North America via Nexon. However, Nexon discontinued its servers, and the game was transferred to Redbana, which is essentially the North American branch of T3. So, one might say, the game is back where it belongs.
The game is published by different companies in over a dozen countries/regions, mostly in Asia. But it’s gaining popularity in North America, and the good folks at Redbana gave us a tour of this free-to-play MMO rhythm game. It was only a month or two ago that the game was upgraded to “Season 2,” which brought on significant graphical improvements, as well as a much larger expansion of songs (including Lady Gaga and Sean Kingston). And new songs are being added every month!
