Sony Online has now launched Free Realms on PC, a free-to-play MMO bristling with surprisingly fun minigames, aimed at teenagers--oldies are still welcome, of course.

Along with DC Universe Online and The Agency, Sony Online Entertainment has revealed plans for its third PlayStation 3 MMO, FreeRealms.

Previously announced and also in development for the PC, FreeRealms is described as an "all new social networking service and massively multiplayer game in one."

According to SOE, the title provides a mix of traditional MMO gameplay, such as exploration and spell casting, along with more casual activities like house decoration and gardening.

The PlayStation 3 version of FreeRealms will be published by Sony Computer Entertainment in European countries, with no release date provided.
