Mythos Closed Beta

Another noteworthy beta test is the one for Mythos, an online action-RPG being developed by Flagship Studios. This round of the test is likely full, but they are still accepting applications for later stages of the beta. "Set in the land of Uld – a fantasy world arising from the ashes of an epoch-long war of darkness – players assume the roles of fantasy heroes as they explore, adventure, and quest through entirely randomized dungeons and environments. With an elegant point-and-click interface and an accessible 'isometric' perspective, Mythos is poised to have near-universal appeal. The game allows thousands of players to interact within the same world while using mostly 'instanced' dungeons to create unique gaming experiences suited for both solo and group-minded players." The game uses some of the same technology as Hellgate: London, which is also a Flagship project. Mythos will be free to download and play.
