Seoul, Korea — Joymax, an online game developer and publisher widely known for longstanding quality titles including Silkroad Online and Digimon Masters, revealed on October 23, details of the battle, power, and glory behind the legendary “Excalibur” in the recently released MMORPG, Knight Age. Players can start now by downloading and playing the game for free here.

“Excalibur” – the legendary sword filled with mystical power – is a well known fable and beloved story, and within Knight Age it exists to bring both power and glory to the most deserving knight. But players shouldn’t expect this legendary weapon to sit idly for passerby’s to test its worthiness; in Knight Age, to wield the legendary Excalibur players must fight for it.

Excalibur represents three key components in Knight Age: the battle for the weapon, the power it imbues to its wielder, and ultimately its glory. The battle for Excalibur is a PVP battle against 100 knights that begins once per day when the elusive sword appears in the middle of a mysterious lake. All participating players, regardless of their level, will be transported to a special battlefield in which the goal is to run to the center of the lake and successfully pull out the Excalibur sword.

However, this task is neither easy nor possible on its first try. A mixture of talent and choice will help as players continue attempting to free Excalibur. Additionally, the player must also defend it from other on-coming players. Whether by luck or skill, the end reward for pulling free the legendary Excalibur will be worth the battle scars.

The one to hold Excalibur is given with a special buff known as “Blessed by the Sword.” This buff will allow the wielder to land a critical hit for every swing the wielder makes and also naturally heals the wielders’ health and mana points even during battle.

This power is envied by many and can prove too much to handle by a single knight; thus it will return to its place in the center of the lake for the next day. Not all is lost when the sword leaves the master’s side, because the knight will be bestowed with glory through a title for once possessing the legendary weapon.

Though many titles exist within Knight Age for everything, from leveling up to making friends, only those who have brandished the Excalibur are given the honor to hold the title “Blessed by the Sword.” Titles are not simply names but they also hold power within. Owning the rare title “Blessed by the Sword” earns players special buffs to their stats which are permanent to their character, not to mention pretty awesome to show off your achievement to others.

For those who wish to experience the legendary Excalibur or prove their worth in a battle against a hundred strong, now is the time to join Knight Age through the Knight Age’s Official Website at http://www.joymax.com/knightage/.

Joymax, leading online game developer and publisher widely known for longstanding quality titles including Silkroad Online and Digimon Masters, introduces a new game system to their wildly popular fantasy MMORPG, Knight Age. With a full month of service under its belt, there is much to explore in the world of Knight Age.  Squires ready to train their first mount can sign up on the official website at http://www.joymax.com/knightage/.

Playing with friends and family is already awesome, but did you know there’s more than just accepting a friend invitation in Knight Age? From sharing Hearts to performing Miracles, Joymax reveals details for their Social Network System in Knight Age.

So what is a Social Network System?  Knight Age allows players to utilize their character’s connections to their friends and guild members in a new way. Every player now has their own Social Network Level, with its own “social EXP” bar. As a player adds new friends, joins a guild and more, the player’s Social Network experience increases – thus, the more social a player is, the more social EXP they will earn.

Once every few hours, players can send a Heart to anyone in their Social Network. These hearts grant the recipient a major social EXP boost for both them and the sender. With more friends and guild members to share hearts with, the faster the player will be able to level up.

Why level up your character’s Social Network? For the abilities you can’t find anywhere else. As a player raises their Social Network Level players will unlock skills such as Auto-Warp, which allows players to teleport instantly to any of the Social Network connections.

The ultimate goal is to knock the top tier Miracle skill. Performing a Miracle on one of your close allies resurrects them instantly with no penalties – removing the damage in armor and weapon durability and eliminating the status effect normally induced by resurrection. So, if the player parties with their best buddies, the player won’t need to worry about falling in battle and vice versa. It’s a win-win situation which players should definitely take advantage of.

With frequent double EXP events and goodie bags being rewarded to players for every 30 minutes they spend in-game, now’s the best time to not only join Knight Age, but to maximize your social potential. Who will be the first to perform the ultimate Miracle? Joymax will be watching at http://www.joymax.com/knightage/.

Don’t forget, Knight Age’s thriving community can be accessed via the game’s forums, or on the official Knight Age Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/officialknightage, with over 13000 fans or on Twitter @KnightAgeOnline.

The more “likes” Facebook receives, the more events players will be able to participate in, so follow today.

On September 25, 2012 Knight Age, published by Joymax which is widely known for servicing Silkroad Online and Digimon Masters, launched its first major update since the opening of their free-to-play 3D fantasy MMORPG with unique riding-action. Among the myriad changes, the first content patch includes new boss pupae (unique pets) for players to collect. Knights can mount up and join in all the fun through the official website at http://www.joymax.com/knightage/

To celebrate the arrival of the new boss pupae, Joymax is kicking off a slew of events for players to explore. For a limited time, new characters will receive a basket of goodies when they first log into the game, including some lucrative cash shop items. Established characters will not be left out, as they will receive an EXP boost alongside an increased money drop rate for the next several weekends.

In addition, new items are now available within the item shop. Pupae and mounts which previously had a limited-time-use timer will now instead be a permanent item for all players who purchase them. No more worrying about losing a beloved companion as they will now be at your side forever.

Pupae are the unique pets each Knight raises and are invaluable companions during battle. Boss pupae in particular are highly sought after, as they have increased strength and unique looks as if a dungeon boss was miniaturized. Because these pets are a rare drop, only obtainable by defeating the boss in question and received as rare loot, the pupae have a huge collector’s value. Now with a total of nine current boss pupae, and more to come within the year, it’s never been a better time to collect, raise and combine your way to the ultimate pet and battle companion.

Knight Age’s thriving community can be accessed via the game’s forums, or on the official Knight Age Facebook which recently celebrated 10,000 likes, or on Twitter @KnightAgeOnline.  The more “likes” Facebook receives, the more events players will be able to participate in, so follow today.
