Myth War II: Reborn Backdrop Unveiled
With the release of Myth War II Online, players will soon be learning about reaching new heights of power, long thought unattainable. This has been made possible by the discovery of the second rebirth process. Every time characters are reborn in game, it means a new beginning, a clean slate… almost. But there is a story behind this process, a story that hasn’t been told in generations and is at risk of being lost forever.
After the rebirth, you become a living legend. Those who have quested for the five soul stones are many, those that have succeeded are few. With the resurrection of the Gods, they then give their blessing that Rarus Continent remain forever peaceful. However, during this tranquil, divine moment, you receive a message from the Gods. You have been chosen by them, and entrusted with a great deal of responsibility. You are chosen to lead the continent on a new course, to return it to glory. This is a mission that will change your fate forever.
The traitor Hades and his distain and contempt for the rules meant the conflict between his underworld kingdom and the Gods would eventually be reduced to meaningless slaughter. In combat, Hades had inflicted heavy losses on the Gods armies. His seven commanders contributed a lot to this temporary victory. The seven dark weapons they possessed had no equal among the mortals and were devastatingly effective. With the inevitable death of Hades, his seven commanders fled the battlefield and hid in the underworld, where they could not be found. Their seven dark weapons were then sealed by the Gods for eternity.
Many years passed and people began to become complacent. They forgot the lessons of the past and the forces of darkness sensed an opportunity. The time is now for warriors on Rarus Continent to once again raise arms and help the Gods defend the peace, and their homeland. Three of Hades elite commanders have arrived at the place where their weapons were sealed and have tried everything to remove the seals. The second War of the Gods is on the verge of breaking out. If they break the seals, the flames of war will once more engulf the world, plunging it into darkness and death…
Atlantica: major update!
NDOORS Interactive, creators of the strategic turn-based MMORPG, Atlantica Online, today released a major update for the award-winning title. The update adds several new features, including two new main character classes – Musician and Maniac. These new features and classes will enhance the players journey through time and history in their quest to find the lost land of Atlantis.
The majority of the new content will be accessible to all players immediately, while some of the new features will only be available to players who have reached level 100.
The major content updates include:
Two New Main Character Classes
Head out into the world with the new classes and get your hands on some unusual gear: a guitar or a power saw. The Musician wields a guitar, which can be selected by any player, new or ongoing. Specializing in long-range combat, the Musician attacks by playing music that strikes two enemies in a line. Its magic attack, the Ravaging Melody, depletes enemies attack power, defense, and health, and aids your mercenaries attacks. When they attack, they utilize moves that would make Angus Young envious.
The second new class is the Maniac, and he/she brandishes a power saw. Only players at level 100 can create a main character using the power saw, although that character will have to start anew at level 1. The Maniacs attack hits all enemies in a row, and has a magic cast called Storm Blast.
New Mercenary
The Elementalist is a new, Class B magic mercenary that can be recruited in North America after you reach level 100. When upgraded, the Elementalist becomes the legendary Native American, Pocahontas.
New Dungeons
Now offering even more locations, Atlantica boasts a handful of new dungeons including Alcatraz Prison, which can only be accessed by nations. Additionally, the Valley of Oblivion, also in North America, can only be accessed by guilds, and is the route players must take to acquire the Elementalist. There are also new side quest dungeons based in China.
Celebrate Your Characters Individuality
Not only will your character now have three new options for hairstyles (the long wave, the afro, and the rasta), your main character will now receive a present on his or her in-game birthday.
9Dragons launches Romanian version
Acclaim Games officially launches the Romanian version of 9Dragons, a FREE TO PLAY martial arts Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game (MMORPG) for the PC available at http://9dragons.acclaim.com/romanian. Romanian players can now enjoy playing 9Dragons in their own native language alongside players from around the world. 9Dragons is Acclaims first ever MMORPG available in the Romanian language.
The Acclaim Games community has been working hard to translate 9Dragons into multiple languages, with Romanian being the first fruit of their efforts. Acclaim expects to release a dozen more languages in the next few months, including French, Spanish, and German.
“We want to thank our Romanian 9Dragons players for all of their help to make 9Dragons our first ever Romanian MMORPG” said Howard Marks, CEO of Acclaim Games.
In 9Dragons, you can rise from a beggar on the streets to a master of Kung Fu as you train with some of the greatest masters of ancient China. Players have the option of joining one of 6 starter clans: Shaolin, Wu-Tang Clan and The League of Beggars are loyal to The Imperial Emperor of China, while The Brotherhood of Thieves, Heavenly Demon, and Sacred Flower Clan (for women only) are opposed to his rule. Players are taught their clan’s unique kung fu style, mastering various techniques as they progress throughout the game, and ultimately fight for the honor and destiny of their chosen clan.
The game also features an in-game item mall where players can purchase optional virtual items such as potions, clothing, and premium packages that provide players with additional game enhancements and customization options.
To welcome all new Romanian players, Acclaim will be running several special events in February, including several days of bonus Experience point events, special Monster Spawn events and scheduled Player vs Player (PvP) battles with Acclaims game master staff. A special promotion featuring a 30% off sale in the item mall will also be available for all new players to test out the premium items. In addition, magnificent in-game fireworks displays will mark the occasion, lighting up the sky at random times.

Acclaim Games Announces new content and studio acquisition plan
The free to play market is growing rapidly and Acclaim wants to solidify its leadership position further. Acclaim now has in development (or has already published) 20 multi-player online games, and it continues its journey towards becoming the biggest online game publisher in the United States.
“Acclaim Games is now in a growth phase, we are rapidly expanding worldwide, and are steadily releasing each of our games in 18 Languages”, says Howard Marks, CEO of Acclaim Games. “We are also excited that we will soon be announcing our 10 millionth registered player!”
“We have set up server farms in Europe to enhance our geographic delivery, and have been writing custom tools to involve our community more than any other publisher in the world”, says Neil Malhotra, CTO of Acclaim Games. “Every game we make uses our single worldwide currency, and all games developed in-house have a requirement of including advanced web based / user-generated tools for the gamers.”
To continue its staggering growth, Acclaim Games is in the process of acquiring online games from publishers, operators and developers. “That can also mean purchasing or partnering with other online operators, our business model offers developers the most revenue in the industry” says Marks.
“I often get asked what Im looking for”, says David Perry, Chief Creative Officer of Acclaim Games. “The answer is simple… We want the most innovative and fun online games, period. The games must be multiplayer, they must be compatible with the free-to-play business model (as that market is far outpacing the console market), and they must be able to scale to massive traffic. We are also interested in large scale multiplayer Flash Games. Ideally, we want games we can release soon, that already have had some testing, as our community has an insatiable appetite.”
CrossFire: Open Beta successful!
G4BOX Inc and Wicked Interactive Ltd., North American publishers and distributors of interactive entertainment media, together announced today the tremendous success and popularity of the open beta for their military first-person shooter, Cross Fire.

The open beta launch marked the beginning of Cross Fire’s persistent military-ranking and stat-tracking features.
