"A korean website [khgames.co.kr] made an interview with a lead Cabal developer, who talked about the first episodes success and the expanding plans of the sequel, Cabal 2. It was confirmed that the company is preparing to launch Cabal 2 overseas, and they are making big efforts to succeed abroad."

Jihyeok Bumunjang, "The first episode of the game - Cabal Online - had 26 million players in over 26 countries since the release in 2005. So they believe that this fanbase can lead the sequel to a global success in the future. Enhanced graphics and competitive gameplay will help the game to overcome other MMORPGs in popularity.They mention that at the time of the Korean release requests from all over the world overflooded the Korean servers. So they can be sure there will be much interest in the game overseas. [ The existence of the Source website is the proof for this too.]Jihyeok BumunjangIt's a big deal too that 30% of the Asian players are women. No other game could achieve that much appeal amongst females. This could be because the stylish visuals of the game.A 1,5 years ago SEA region got its contract that nears completion. This will allow the Thai service with Singapore and Malaysia included to join the game soon with its own english language service, and the Philippines is expected to have its own contract soon.Expanding plans with the english language service include China in the first half of 2015 and then continuing to expand from SEA, Indonesia, Vietnam to the future Germany and Turkey-European region"

Huh, so it seems we won't be getting it for a couple years based on what I see in that website... Looks pretty awesome though. Thanks for the info guys.

EDIT: Looked at the website a bit more, more like a year, not a couple it seems...
