Guild Launch releasing thousands of Dragon's Prophet closed beta keys into the wild

Guild hosting service, Guild Launch, is giving away thousands of closed beta keys for Sony Online Entertainment's upcoming free-to-play massively multiplayer online game, Dragon's Prophet.

As the game's exclusive distributor of closed beta keys in the U.S., those interested can grab a key by heading to Guild Launch's website. Users can then visit the official Dragon's Prophet site, log in or create a Station Account account and download the game once the code is confirmed.

Keys are for U.S. accounts only and Guild Launch announced that it has removed one key per IP address restrictions.

Set in the world of Auratia, the Runewaker-developed MMORPG will feature more than 300 different dragons to ride, fight and train. It has three traditional character classes: Ranger, Sorcerer, and Guardian. The fourth is a scythe-wielding, agile melee character class known as the Oracle.

Dragon's Prophet is expected to launch later this year and is available for pre-order on its official website. For more information on the MMORPG, see our previous coverage on the game's starting zones, character classes and interview with senior producer Todd Carson.
