Twelve Sky, often referred to as 12Sky, is a massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG). It is Korean developer Gigassoft''s first released game set in the Oriental Fantasy universe launched in its home market in 2004. Aeria Games announced Twelve Sky Closed Beta on September 5, 2007. The Closed Beta date was set to be on September 18, 2007. Twelve Sky then went into Open Beta on October 12, 2007. Twelve Sky is now in official and can be downloaded from the website for free and played through the client on any computer with internet access with an Aeria Games and Entertainment account.
  As with other MMORPGs, players control a character avatar within a game world, exploring the landscape, fighting monsters, completing quests and interacting with NPCs or other players. As with all games hosted by the Aeria Games network, Twelve Sky does not require the player to pay for a subscription.
  Each player can have 3 characters on a single account, with multiple accounts possible. To enter the game, the player must select a server. Each server acts as an individual copy of the game world and players can enter them freely with any character. Servers are all Player versus player (PvP) where open combat among players is common while including all aspects of Player versus environment (PvE) where players can defeat monsters and complete quests. On any server a player may create characters belonging to only a single Fraction; Guanyin,Fujin or Jinong on any single account.
  To create a new character players must choose between the Fractions of Guanyin,Fujin or Jinong. Characters from the fractions can communicate and trade with only players of their fraction and form guilds with only their fraction. The player selects the new character''s fraction as Guanyin, Fujin or Jinong. Player can also choose gender and hair style/color and their avatar''s name. Each fraction has an unique appearance and set of skills available to them and players much choose their play style based on the attributes of the separate fractions.
  Twelve Sky was first released by Gigasoft in Korea, 2004. Since then it has expanded to China and now Japan and North America. The game was designed to be an open environment where players are allowed to do what they please. Quests are optional and were designed to help guide players, allow character development, and to spread characters across different zones to try to avoid what developers call ''player collision''. The game interface allows players to customize appearance and controls and other modifications.
