Secret of the Solstice is a free-to-play MMORPG (Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game) developed and published by DNC Entertainment in Korea and hosted by Outspark in the international English market. It is the second MMO published by Outspark.
Secret of the Solstice features a cute, anime-inspired visual style. Player characters, monsters, and non-player characters (NPCs) are represented as 2D sprites while environments and background elements are rendered in 3D.
US Secret of the Solstice was subsequently shut down by its publisher 'Outspark' for 'undisclosed reasons'. Any and all time and real money that players put into the game was lost. However Outspark offered a character merge to 'Solstice Reborn' a beta of a new release of Solstice. On October 24, 2011, the Beta was released for 1 week until it closed and Outspark removed all traces of its existence. Outspark also shut down their forums for comments on 'Solstice'.
Secret of the Solstice was re-launched in 2020 with the name "Xen Rebirth" as a non-profit fan-operated private server, running entirely on donations. The server source code for this version remains proprietary.[3]
In 2022, the Korean company 'Playworks' acquired all rights to the 'Xen Online' IP from DNC, which includes Secret of the Solstice.[4]
