Chinese virtual world HiPiHi has launched its public beta test, offering both Chinese and English language versions. It's free for users to register, with a business model based around renting land and item sales, much like Second Life. It's one of the most eagerly-awaited new virtual worlds, with the industry keen to see if it takes off in the (potentially) huge and (hopefully) lucrative Chinese market. The promo video above should give you some idea of its look and feel. (via TechCrunch)
