Found this article on line, How come no mention of this in the patch notes?

The rest

The new race and classes aren't all there is to this new chapter, of course. For one thing, RoM will be able to be launched through your browser. That's right: You won't need to download a client. You can play anywhere now (even at work, but don't tell your boss we said that). The European version of the game has access to this at the moment, but the US servers will get it soon, and I was told that the browser version loads just as fast as the version launched through the downloadable client. Same graphics, same game. There are no differences between the two versions, and yes, you still get loyalty rewards for playing on the browser version of the game. Frogster just wants the game to be more accessible.

Quoted

Again, all this content will be free come June 12th, but possibly not the browser version yet for the US servers.
