Requiem: Bloodymare, which Gravity Interactive dubs "the goriest game to hit the MMO world", has entered open beta. Gamers will be able to start playing on May 15th.  According to Gravity Interactive, Requiem features "ragdoll physics, buckets of blood and the Nightmare, DNA and Beast Possession systems." Jay Choi, vice president of Gravity Interactive, had this to say about the open beta:

“We’re extremely excited about going into open beta. Requiem was developed from the get-go to take adult gaming to a whole new level and we achieved that with gut-wrenching battles and MMO bloodshed you have never seen before...The open beta will give everyone the opportunity to seek adventure in Ethegia – and cut monsters in half, of course.”

From the press release:

The DNA system allows players to customize their characters to their heart’s content by combining new pieces of DNA. There are five slots available but certain combinations can have special results and unlock a sixth slot.

The Beast Possession system allows players to transform their characters into menacing Beasts in order to slay even the fiercest of monsters. Beasts can be acquired starting on level 25 and gain experience with the user’s main character. Up to three beasts can be equipped allowing players to select between warrior and magic user beasts to balance their play style.

The Nightmare system is one of Requiem’s main differentiators. Requiem has day and night cycles; a full day takes two hours in-game. Every night, from 11 p.m. to 2 a.m., the world goes dark and much more powerful monsters come to life. Players are able to collect better loot from Nightmare monsters; however they’ll need backup in order to avoid repeated, painful deaths.
