We have to be honest and say we don't know a whole lot about <em><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/tag/Icarus-Online/">Icarus Online</a></em>, due to the fact that it hasn't been released over here and isn't in a language that most of us can speak. Those are barriers to education right there. But we <em>do</em> know it's <a href="http://steparu.com/latest-news/1664-icarus-online-gets-a-new-expansion-the-evil-desert">getting a new expansion</a>, and a trailer for that expansion is available just past the break.<br />
<br />
The expansion is dubbed <em>The Evil Desert</em>, and you can guess what the focus is from the title alone, really. It's not a benevolent tundra. From the trailer, it should feature new storyline quests, at least one massive new boss, and a lot of people speaking ominously whilst conjuring cards. Check out the trailer for yourself just past the break; it'll take only a minute of your time.<p><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2014/11/25/icarus-online-releases-trailer-for-the-evil-desert/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Icarus Online releases trailer for The Evil Desert</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com"><img src="http://massively.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Massively" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2014/11/25/icarus-online-releases-trailer-for-the-evil-desert/">Icarus Online releases trailer for The Evil Desert</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com">Massively</a> on Tue, 25 Nov 2014 16:00:00 EST.

The open beta client features five classes (Berserker, Guardian, Assassin, Wizard, and Priest) as well as a level 25 cap, the new Hakanas Ocean map, and a new raid. TIG reports that WeMade will add a dedicated player-killing area and an Archer class "after the OBT."<br />

It's been nearly a year since we've heard anything of note from <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/tag/icarus-online"><em>Icarus Online</em></a>, but now <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/tag/wemade-entertainment">WeMade Entertainment</a> has released a new trailer to celebrate the upcoming open beta for its dragon- and flight-based MMORPG.

We haven't talked about <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/tag/Icarus-Online/"><em>Icarus Online</em></a> after its unfortunate journey to the sun last year, so it's definitely time to check in with this South Korean import. The flight-centric MMO is gearing up for closed beta next month, and players can sign up right the heck now if they want to participate in the beta.<br />
<br />
The first closed beta test is scheduled for May 2nd through 5th and will feature five classes and a level cap of 25.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/tag/wemade-entertainment/">WeMade Entertainment</a> has a new trailer showing off <em>Icarus Online </em>and its aerial combat, which your peepers may partake of after the jump.<br />

Last week we heard tell of <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/tag/Icarus-Online/"><em>Icarus Online</em></a>, a new Korean import from <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/tag/wemade-entertainment/">WeMade Entertainment</a>. The initial trailer clocked in at a rather cryptic 29 seconds, so today we're happy to see a longer foray into gameplay proper.<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.mmoculture.com/2012/11/gstar-2012-icarus-official-trailer-shown-with-actual-game-footage/">MMO Culture</a> reports that one of <em>Icarus</em>' selling points is aerial combat, and the new <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/tag/g-star-2012">G-Star 2012</a> vid reflects as much. <em>Icarus Online</em> is built on the CryEngine 3, and <a href="http://www.steparu.com/latest-news/976-icarus-online-gstar2012">Steparu</a> says that it features point-and-click combat on the ground and "non-targeting" combat in the skies.

Itching to dive-bomb a rival guild's castle from dragon-back? It will be possible in the upcoming fantasy game <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/tag/Icarus-Online/"><em>Icarus Online</em></a>. And <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/tag/wemade-entertainment/">WeMade Entertainment</a> just launched a new website filled with teaser trailers and screenshots to show off the new title and its five playable races: Beserker; Guardian; Priest; Assassin; and Wizard.<br />
<br />
<em>Icarus Online</em> will also have a political system that allows for guilds to become their own factions as well as own land and castles. Players can capture mobs out in the wilds and train them as fighting companions as well as mounts, then take those pets into battle against their foes during siege warfare.<br />
