Jade Dynasty is the English-based, North American version of Zhu Xian, one of China's most popular Free-To-Play games.  Based on the extremely popular internet novel, also titled "Zhu Xian," Jade Dynasty features a unique martial arts style game play wrapped in a huge, evolving game world.

Jade Dynasty offers players a multitude of features and systems not commonly found in free-to-play MMORPGs.  Once inside the crisp, clean game world, players begin their quest to uncover the secrets of immortality as they first assume the role of a simple paladin. Players delve into a system where choices between good and evil begin to shape their game play experience as they obtain different skills, items and ultimately, a story that is unique to every player.  Among the many great features, the classless character progression system allows players to focus on the skills you desire to create the ultimate warrior.

Unlike other games that charge subscription fees, Jade Dynasty is "Free-To-Play." Digital goods that players can obtain in the Cash Shop include: items that can assist with tasks such as consumables that aid player progress, others that reset or temporarily increase stats, expansion of storage capabilities, customizable fashion and equipment, such as mounts that allow faster movement and reduce travel time, social items and gifts that assist communication, and much more.

Since launching in 2009, Jade Dynasty has opened new servers in North America and Europe, providing service in English, German and French languages.

"Jade Dynasty continues to grow around the world with recently released German and French versions. With the two year anniversary, we'd like to thank all of our players worldwide for their dedication and their help to make the game even better with age," said Dean Sakurai, Product Manager for Jade Dynasty. "We look forward to continue making Jade Dynasty even better with feedback from our players. In celebration, we've partnered with media sites to give out limited numbers of the highly coveted lion-like Auspicon mount."
