Ingle Games' upcoming Chinese Zodiac-themed MMORPG, Zodiac Online, will be entering it's final closed beta phase come December 12th, 2009.

Characters part of the final closed beta phase will not be wiped, and closed beta keys will no longer be required for registration.

The last phase of beta will also introduce a number of new features to the game, including a fairly unique in-game video chat function (webcam required), PvP-oriented Wagon Escorting quests, and a daily event known as the War of Divine Animals, where players must band together to defeat the divine animals and their powerful guards.

In addition to today's announcement, Ingle Games has sent over a trio of new screenshots which you can view in our Zodiac Online gallery.
