Com2us announced the first major update to its fantasy action RPG, East Legend. The update includes changes and improvements to existing game elements, as well as new content.
 
Item Evolution System: The evolution system will be simpler and more intuitive. When an item is evolved, the item type and set type will stay the same and the item rarity and star grade will increase.
 
New Guild Content: More guild features will be unlocked. Players will now be able to collect points for their guilds, level up, and obtain better guild rewards.
 
Updates to the Colosseum: There will be two new additions to the Colosseum: Team Battle and Tag Battle. Team Battle will allow players to form 3 teams of 4 heroes and go up against other players’ teams. Tag Battle calls for each player to choose 3 heroes to fight one at a time against an opposing player’s heroes. Colosseum rewards and the auto battle system will be improved.
 
Tower of Babel: The Tower of Babel that includes multiple dungeon levels of increasing difficulty will finally be open to the global server after a period of beta testing.
 
UI Improvements: The world map and loading screens will be easier to view and faster to load to make the game more fluid with less waiting time.

Com2us is celebrating the first anniversary of its flagship title, Summoners War, with a major update and several in-game events in the coming weeks.
 
Summoners War has seen massive success since its global launch in June 2014 and has solidified Com2us’ place in the Western market. The company leveraged the popularity of the game and strength of its community to expand its presence in the United States with a branding campaign that included a full-length commercial earlier this year. The campaign included elements of art, entertainment, and social media to attract a larger and more diverse user base.
 
“We’ve made a conscious effort to reach new and broader audiences through different and sometimes unconventional methods”, says Casey Lee, Head of Com2us USA. “We know that our users are more than just gamers, so we’ve shifted our approach as more of a lifestyle brand than a mobile game company. We hope to build trust with our users through fun and non-traditional campaigns and we’re looking to push the envelope further with more Summoners War this year .”
 
Summoners War has amassed nearly 40 million downloads worldwide and is top-10 grossing in 93 countries on App Store and 86 countries on Google Play. Com2us released a grand update for Summoners War that coincides with the anniversary. The latest version includes upgrades to the Guild component of the game, as well as new characters and scenario maps.
 

• New Scenario Maps: What was once kept a mystery and only seen as previews in earlier SummonersWar updates, the long-awaited Rift of Worlds will be opened.
• Guild Shop Additions: Players will now be able to obtain Legendary Scrolls for free in the Guild Shop. Every 100 Legendary Scroll Fragments can be used to obtain a Legendary Scroll, which can summon a guaranteed 4 or 5 star monster.
• Guild Banners: Players can apply Guild Banners that attribute additional Damage and Defense and contribute to their strength within a guild.
• New Characters: Four new 3 to 5 star monsters called Warriors of the Seven Seas will be added.

 
To celebrate the anniversary, Summoners War is launching a special two-week event that starts Monday, June 15, where players can use Gift Boxes obtained in the Scenario and Cairos Dungeons to collect resources and rewards. Players are also invited to participate in events on the community’s Facebook page, where various other prizes will be distributed.

As part of the Steam Summer Sale, Ascent – The Space Game (www.TheSpaceGame.com ), the largest space game in the known universe, is now 20% off during the Steam Summer Sale. To celebrate, you can now talk to the NPCs of the world by landing and exploring player made colonies. This includes the Aveege Corp Carbpost, the first colony to pass 150,000 buildings! Find out more about why Ascent’s one trillion planet galaxy is so special on Steam at http://store.steampowered.com/app/345010/
 
Ascent is a game that tries to break new ground with each major update. Starting with their massive 200 billion star system and player driven economies and followed by the ability to terraform entire planets, this new update to NPCs will radically change the landscape of the game. At the moment NPCs have personalities, needs, wants, and even approval ratings of their colonial governor, but much of that is hidden away waiting for new features. For now, players can seek out NPCs in colonies and hire them to ferry goods to and from destinations, removing the burdensome task of having to do it yourself. As the game continues to evolve NPCs will begin to act on their own, including potentially going rogue, stealing ships, becoming pirates, getting addicted to substances, and begin attempting to fulfill their wants and needs. When an NPC wants something they’ll begin asking players to fulfill that need, be it hunting down someone who’s wronged them or smuggling a case of a banned substance onto the planet. These NPC needs will be tied together, where completing one task will likely result in the change of needs and wants of other NPCs on the planet, opening new options to explore.
 
Within game of Ascent, players fly ships, build colonies, and explore a vast galaxy modeled after the Milky Way, complete with an estimated 200 billion stars. With the goal of repopulating this galaxy, players can construct ships, colonies, star bases, and even super projects such as warp gates and terraformed planets.
 
Players even control the government, with elections looming that may change the planetary, system, and president positions, Ascent players are gearing up for a very busy summer. With 20% off now is the perfect time to get in and cast your vote! Get it now at http://store.steampowered.com/app/345010/  or play for free at http://www.thespacegame.com/

World of Fishing – newly founded publisher gameXcite and developer Masangsoft are announcing the arrival of a unique mix of a realistic 3D Fishing Simulation and Massively Multiplayer Online Game (MMOG). Thousands of players are driving their boats freely to explore a variety of areas, hoping to catch the biggest fish and develop their character – diving into a new gameplay experience!
 
“Big Game Fishing”- catching big fish in the ocean – is the crown discipline among Fishermen, whose representation in gaming had, until now, remained very basic.  But unlike most  games, World of Fishing boasts gameplay depth, high quality 3D graphics, numerous locations ranging from North America (Vancouver, San Francisco, New York) to South Africa and Asia (Thailand, Korea, Japan), and over 360 different types of  fish, complete with sophisticated AI.
 
But World of Fishing is also a full MMO that allows thousands of players to fish together, chat or compete to catch the biggest fish! Each virtual fisherman has their own outfits and hooks, rods, baits and boats, and their equipment varies depending on regions. Like in an RPG, character development is central to the gameplay experience: while beginners use their rubber raft to look for mackerel, advanced players may even catch tuna and sharks from their yacht. And those who get lonely out in the ocean can join clubs to team up with others.
 
World of Fishing will be free to play with no download or subscription fees.
 
“Big game fishing is the highest discipline for fishing enthusiasts”, comments Patrick Streppel, founder and CEO of gameXcite, “so for World of Fishing, our focus was to provide realistic fishing gameplay combined with the community experience and long-term motivation of an online game.”
 
How to join the beta: The maiden voyage for World of Fishing will start June 2015. Join the beta test and provide feedback to the development team! Sign up on the official website for a free account and discuss with others in our forums or on Facebook.

GTArcade has received great responses from the recent Closed Beta and would like to thank you all player for their support. If you have not been able to join in the Closed Beta there is no need to worry, we are happy to give you the specific features that supplements and perfects Magerealm.
 
Guild Events
First on the list is the collection of Guild Events. Fun and rewarding, Guild Events are a great way to level up, obtain items and have fun with friends. The Pool Party is a favorite among players. Throw soap and play pranks on your guild mates while gaining EXP and Amethyst used to upgrade your skills. Bonfire Party is a more laid back and relaxing way to gain EXP and to get to know your friends better.
 
However, not all Guild Events are peaceful and relaxing. The Defender event requires you to repel Barbarian Invaders and protect your guild territories. This is where you need to upgrade your guild’s Mana Cannon which is crucial to your victory in this event.
 
These guild events needs to be activated by your guild leader and can be unlocked after your character reaches level 25.
 
World Boss
Another exciting event is the World Boss Event that takes place twice a day. Compete with other players for damage done to the world boss and fight for loot. This event allows you to play with others on your server and also gives you a chance to see how powerful you are compared to other people.
 
Be careful though, when the boss has less than 10% of health left, PVP is activated. At this point, players can kill each other so that they can be the one who ends up last-hitting the boss. The player who kills the boss gets to dig the Boss’s remains to obtain great rewards.
 
Raiders
What could be more exciting than PVP? Raiders! In this event, players are split into two teams tasked with the collection of Mana Crystals. Deposit these crystals or kill other players who are transporting crystals to gain points. You have to cooperate with your teammates to guard the crystals and work together to bring down a stronger enemy. In the last minutes of the game, the crystal in the middle is reset into a crystal that grants extra points so the action gets extra crazy. Stay alive, harvest crystals and get rewards!
 
Features and Choices
Mageream is an extremely feature-rich game, providing complex and diverse advancement paths. There are more events than the above mentioned ones. You will never run out of things to explore in Magerealm. Players can spend hours and hours learning the intricacies of the game. Strategy plays a large role in your effectiveness in battle, and every choice you make can determine victory or defeat.

For those that have been following CityState Games’ Camelot Unchained from the start, it should be clear that this company is all about driving their title towards a vision shared by their community. Considering it’s a niche PvP only realm v realm MMORPG, they need to knock it out of the park with their core audience for financial reasons. Well today we saw an example of community driven content updates that is as direct as it gets, since Backer Ortu utilized GitHub to introduce his own spin on an improved user interface for the ability builder system.
 

 
When Lead Engineer Andrew saw the system, he took it and implemented it as the base default for the skill builder user interface on the actual build of the game. While most game developers would rather be filleted by their community instead of admitting to adopting a fan made creation, CityState knew the clarity of the skill components’ impact on the final project was a smart idea and ran with it, improving their product while no doubt speeding up one aspect of the game towards its launch state.

 

 
In other Camelot Unchained news, we should be getting word of its next unannounced stretch goal soon, along with a video showcasing particle physics in relation to siege war destroying castles. Andrew has posted a short vine sample of what to expect, so keep an eye out for the full reveal.
