Prius Online

Sad news for Prius Online fans, as today gPotato has announced that the game will be shutting down on March 27, 2012. As compensation, gPotato is giving away game packages for other gPotato-published titles: Aika, Allods Online, Flyff, and Rappelz. Any player who has logged into Prius Online at least 3 times or more in the past 90 days will be eligible for the packages, although it should be stressed that only one game package can be redeemed per account.

Everyone will have to create a new character, but the good news is that the server will not be wiped again. The characters you create during the open beta will be around for the life of the game.

gPotato is hosting a variety of events in celebration of the launch of open beta. For example, be the first person to reach level 50 and you will win a Prius hoodie and mousepad, or be one of the first players to meet your Anima or get a Gigas to win a hoodie or a Gigas costume for your Anima.
