Wicked Interactive Add New Content To Ace Online

We're suddenly struck by the fact that there are (at least) two free-to-play MMO publishers based in Toronto—G4Box and Wicked Interactive—which is kind of interesting to us because Toronto is better known for its independent game developers (like Jonathan Mak and Metanet Software) than it is for publishers. There's possibly some reason for it—after all, each publisher is repurposing Korean MMOs for the North American market, but then again, there might not be, either.

Anyway, Wicked Interactive just popped us a line to let us know that it's released a new content update for its rather unique RPG/space shooter MMO ACE Online.

The new update includes an overhaul to the user interface, new missions, maps and monsters, and new social features, allowing users to connect with one another more easily to trade items, equipment or battle.

The last time we heard from Wicked Interactive, it was to let us know that they were hosting Korean MMO Priston Tale, and we'll probably try to take a more in-depth look at the (increasingly absurd) number of Korean free-to-play MMOs flooding these shores in future.
