14 DAY TRIAL // MMORPG fans worldwide have a lot of reasons to be happy this year. More and more MMO developers are reaching out to the PC but also next-gen platforms. There's no question whether gamers of the genre want another game or not, and so, it wouldn't hurt to know that VestGame Entertainment has announced that 'Magic Ages', its first fantasy MMORPG, is set for release by the end of September, in North America. The company also revealed that it will soon confirm the launch date for the game's closed beta.
Here's a little something about the game, as I found via an official report released today: Set against the backdrop of an enchanted land and seeped in Norse and religious mythology, 'Magic Ages' is an immersive 2.5D MMORPG which has been in development for over one year. On the eve of Lucifer's escape from hell, the game plunges its players into an ancient war between two rival human kingdoms torn apart by hatred and on the verge of destruction. Having been tested and proven in the Asian market for eight months, the game's developers feel confident that Magic Ages will provide a compelling alternative to existing free MMOs. With its appealing graphics, rich plotline and variety of game options, 'Magic Ages' is expected to become a landmark for free MMORPGs. Along with its strong guild system which enables players to collaborate and compete with each other, Magic Ages also enhances the interactive experience by integrating an innovative audio and video chat system into the game environment.
As far as distribution is concerned for Magic Ages, that too will also be handled by VestGame Entertainment, which - since 2002 - has been continuously developing the market, providing value-added services for the gaming community, by adopting state-of-the-art technology, whilst providing online players with the fantasy games they long for.
However, the same press release also says something about a second game, set to be launched by the end of October, all this while VestGame is also developing a series of other projects set to hit the North American market early next year. I have to say, for a developer not-so-heard-of, their projects sure sound promising. Let's hope that everything mentioned so far turns out to be true.
