Lunia is an action arcade MMORPG from China's CDC Games (developed by Korea's ALLM Co.), and they're bringing the brightly colored, free-to-play model to the US early next year. They describe it as "much like an action arcade game, allowing players to move around using arrow keys rather than a mouse. The game can be played with a console 'D pad' style controller which makes the game familiar and easy to use for the millions of Xbox users throughout the U.S." Does this qualify as 'new and improved'?
As announced recently, Lunia Online Global will be shutting down on 1st January 2014, 24:00 (PST). For the past year or so, Korean developer All-M was operating the global English server based on donations from the gamers, and lack of funding is 1 of the core reasons for the closure.

MMOHut, "ijji officially announced that it will now begin supporting Facebook connect to allow gamers to access the ijji portal by using their facebook accounts. Players can also more easily connect with each other while playing ijji’s games through Facebook connect as well..."
