Riot Games to Summon ‘League of Legends’ in 2009

World-Class Development Team, Including Creators of DotA-Allstars, to Offer Players Online Multiplayer Battle-Arena Game
LOS ANGELES — Oct. 7, 2008 — Riot Games, an independent developer and publisher of premium online video games, is currently developing its first title, League of Legends. In the online multiplayer session-based game, rival teams will compete against one another for victory on highly stylized battlefields and landscapes. The title combines elements of role-playing and strategy genres with addictive battle action that brings accessible, replayable, competitive gameplay into a whimsical universe that deepens with the player’s commitment. Riot will invite players into the League of Legends beta in 2009.
After an age of warfare, the superpowers of the land of Valoran have come together to form a governing body that will settle all disputes behind the closed doors of the Institute of War. Their task is a noble one — to lift the impossible weight of bloody war off the shoulders of the world and place it upon a select few — The League of Legends. On the Fields of Justice, legendary Champions forge alliances and resolve their differences in battle arenas. In the League there is one rule that reigns over all else: Winner rules all.
In League of Legends, players take on the role of a persistent Summoner avatar that gazes upon the battlefield from above and influences battles by taking command of a chosen Champion. During each online multiplayer play session, gamers will choose one of dozens of unique Champions wielding diverse skills and abilities, and engage in fast-paced team-oriented combat to bring their foes to ruin. Champions will gain levels, items, and abilities that enable them to slay their opponents and augment the strength of their allies by battling with enemy minions, foul beasts, deadly turrets and enemy Champions.

League of Legends emphasizes team-oriented gameplay and players must work together in order to defeat the opposing team. League of Legends will feature custom-built multiplayer support including matchmaking, stat tracking, clan support, anti-cheat systems, dedicated in-game ladders and Leaverbuster technology.

The League of Legends community will feature an abundance of ongoing events including tournaments, leagues and contests. The Riot development team will open their doors for community input, allowing gamers to have their opinions heard, have their ideas implemented in League of Legends and continue to shape the game as it evolves post-launch.

Voyage Century: Stunning Skills

Today the folks at Voyage Century are going to show you some stunning skills from falchion, sword, axe, and gun.

Lightning Slash is actually a passive skill of falchion. You occasionally have the chance to attack enemy 3 times in a row, and as you probably know falchion has high attack, so this skill is very critical.

Quite different from falchion, axe can offer you high defense. Once you use a Defensive Stance, your character’s defense will be greatly improved.

Many players think that Launch Stab is the most beautiful skill they have ever seen in Voyage Century. It’s like a phoenix born in the fire. Once you use this skill, your attack power will be dramatically improved.

Sniping is a very useful skill, especially during a chase fight. Once you use it, your target will be slowed down, and all you need to do is walk over to your target and make it disappear.

The Sword Dance could be the most artistic skill in Voyage Century. Once you use it, it’s like a dancer dancing with a red ribbon in their hand. You can see the ribbon spinning around gracefully.

Rage of God is a very powerful axe skill. Once you use it, your attack power will be greatly improved, and after the axe drops down, the ground will seem to split under it’s power.
For screenshots of these skills, please visit the Voyage Century Screenshots Gallery.

Sunnyvale, California – October 7th, 2008 – Gala-Net Inc., a leading publisher of online multiplayer games, announced today the release of Flyff, Version 12 (V.12) in the US. Flyff, Fly for Fun, is a free-to-play MMORPG published through the gPotato game portal.

With this new release, players will be even more engaged within the Flyff community. The new Lord System will allow eligible players to unite and vote for a Lord of their server for 2 weeks. An elected Lord will be given exclusive skills and equipment, including the ability to start EXP or item drop events on his/her server. In addition, there will be a new dungeon for players to explore called the Forsaken Tower. The tower hosts 5 floors, each of which has unique monsters inspired from different mythologies from all around the world. At the top of the Forsaken Tower are two rooms, in which guilds must compete to win access. Winning the competition grants guilds powers never seen before in Madrigal. Players can also join forces to fight the new NPC boss, Rangda, the soul of a cursed witch that lies deep within the forest of Darkon. There are four incarnations of Rangda in V.12, and only mid-to-high level players (at last level 70) should dare to challenge her.
