GMG Entertainment's latest prepaid card partnership is with Wicked Interactive, publishers of the Suba Games portal. The initial Suba Games card will support the games Ace Online, Priston Tale 1, Metin 2, and Crossfire. Future versions of the card are planned that will also support the upcoming release Priston Tale 2. All of these games are English localizations of Korean freemium games that monetize through sales of virtual items in cash shops.
The Suba Games prepaid cards will be redeemable for the portal's Suba Points virtual currency. They go on sale in leading retail outlets in September of this year. Wicked Interactive's partnership with GMG for prepaid cards is an exclusive, multi-year deal that seems to hint at original or perhaps more extensive localized freemium games in Wicked's future.
"GMG is pleased to team with Wicked Interactive as they continue to create a distinctly North American MMO community," said GMG Founder and CEO Rob Goldberg. "We feel that through this partnership, GMG will be able to lend a key ingredient as Wicked continues their efforts to create MMOs built specifically for the North American gaming community."
