Is the next thing from NCSoft, lets hear what they have to say about it:

Dungeon Runners is an online role-playing game that’s free to download and free to play!

As a brave hero, you’ll explore dangerous dungeons, battle ferocious monsters and discover incredible weapons, artifacts and loot.

Choose to play as Fighter, Mage or Ranger in a realm of terror, magic and adventure. Unlock powerful new skills as you gain experience on your journey into the unknown.

Whether fighting evil hordes as a lone warrior or teaming up with online friends to carve a path of destruction through your foe, Dungeon Runners will quench your deepest dungeon-crawling thirst.
Game Features

* Free to download and play*.
* Three character classes: Fighter, Mage, or Ranger. Each can learn powerful magic and deadly weapon skills.
* Progress in power as you gain levels and acquire new treasures.
* Some dungeons can be completed quickly, rewarding those who can only invest 15 minutes a play session. Greater dungeons, however, will provide a deep, rich, questing experience for those who want to go on longer runs or multi-part quests.
* Easy to control with either ‘WASD’ or point and click combat and movement.
* Adventure alone or join with online friends to form your own band of heroes.
* Undertake quests to rid the world of unspeakable horrors and legions of enemies.
* Gather in the public area of Townston, and then quickly hop into a new adventure in your very own instanced dungeon.
* Become a legend. Bask in the limelight as your powers, equipment, and influence grow with each successful quest and every fallen foe.
* Randomly generated dungeons may contain any number of special rooms, different monster encounters and more! Each dungeon is always fresh, providing limitless re-playability.
* Game content will continually grow: new maps, monsters, powers, and much, much more!
* Literally thousands of magic weapons, items, and armor to discover!
* Dungeon Runners will always be free to download and play, however, choose to become a member* and you’ll have access to the most powerful in-game items and a growing list of members-only privileges.

So, sounds like a multiplayer rogue/diablo kind of game that comes free but might have some form of micropayment or added bonuses for paying "members".

It is currently in closed beta and new players have to be recommended by existing players.

I am really interested in this game because it might be something that you can enjoy for a few hours and then forget about for a couple of days unlike most online RPGs.

If there is already a thread about this please lock, I couldn't find one.

Also, if someone is already in the beta and has some recommendations, please feel free to forward one to me
As an upstanding citizen and long time player of CoH I still got a PlayNCaccount.

EDIT: I just noticed that the NDA has been lifted, so if anyone is in the beta please share your experiences with the game.

There's an invite-a-thon thread for it, though it doesn't really have any info or anything in it.

People said it was rather meh.

Referrals are currently on hold.

Really, it's okay, but nothing at all outstanding in any way. All the content is pretty much the same, with an occasional changeup in graphics. The only really interesting encounters are the boss fights.

I liked it. It's a simple dungeon crawler, and it's fun to play with friends. Nothing special, but a fun distraction.

How have the controls progressed? When the beta first opened they were quite... clunky.
