Cabal To Transfer Ownership: To ESTsoft


MMOs are no stranger to changes in host, in fact just last year Archlord and several other MMOs changed hands due to various reasons. Cabal Online players received a notice yesterday that OGPlanet (not to be confused with Aion’s G-Unit) will no longer be supporting Cabal Online. Although the publisher did not give a specific reason why, they described the situation as forced upon them (ESTsoft decided not to extend the operating contract for some reason or another). Instead, ESTsoft will be taking over control of Cabal, after the game’s temporary shutdown on March 31st. According to the new website, http://www.cabalonline.net/, it appears ESTsoft and OGPlanet are still in negotiation as to what will be transferred over, and if player characters, stats, and items will make the transition. For a game whose level cap in the triple digits, let’s hope for the sake of players that the characters do transfer.

As I’ve already said, transfers of ownership are not uncommon in the MMO world, as developers contract out their games in foreign countries to third party companies. Codemasters for instance, has operated several MMOs in Europe ranging from Lord of The Rings Online, Dungeons and Dragons Online, Fury, and numerous others. World of Warcraft moved from The9 to Netease last year, while Archlord changed hands from Codemasters to Webzen, and Acclaim took over Chronicles of Spellborn.

So best of luck to Cabal Online, wherever your future may take you.

    1. Hello Dark,

      I did some research for you, and here’s what I found:

      STEP 1:
      SIGN UP at http://www.cabal.com
      To transfer, fill in your OGP ID and password to verify.
      (DON’T PRESS ‘GIVE UP’ button this time.
      Put your OGP account and its password in the blank, and hit the ‘Transfer’ button.)

      STEP 2:
      Once you sign up, the verification email will be sent to your email address.

      STEP 3:
      Check your email and click the link in it to activate your account.

      STEP 4:
      Click “OGP ACCOUNT TRANSFER” button on home page and go through OGP data transfer.
      If you want to transfer, fill in your OGP ID and password to verify.

      Hope this helps,
      -Omali
