Chicago, U.S.A. — Bytebin announced on October 18, the launch of Deepworld, a massively-multiplayer online crafting adventure game, for Mac. The game can be downloaded at deepworldgame.com for $5.00. Deepworld will also be arriving on the App Store on November 15, 2012 for a complete cross-platform MMO experience.

Deepworld possesses treasures and lost technology hidden in the depths of a dilapidated, steampunk universe. Players find their way through hand-drawn mountains, caves, and ruins, or venture into cities built by friends. The raw environment is rich with resources and materials to be mined and then turned into hundreds of different items using the game’s easy-to-use crafting system. Players can customize their worlds by placing items anywhere, and can recover lost pieces of technology to build machines and restore the land. Throughout their journey, players may also encounter monsters of the deep and can create weapons to annihilate them.

A persistent online universe, Deepworld is always available for players to jump on and off with friends whenever, and with the iPad beta, wherever they are.

“Deepworld isn’t merely a sandbox for mining and crafting,” said Bytebin developers Mike Laurence and Jason Pearl.  “It’s a full MMO where you can build your world with friends and meet new ones.  The seamless cross-platform access through the cloud means that you can play at home on your Mac and anywhere on the iPad, entering right back into the same place in the game.”

In Deepworld players can:

• Explore and scavenge in a ruined, steampunk world, digging for precious materials and items, and restore the decayed land by assembling purification and composting machines.
• Meet new friends in an online universe across any platform.
• Easily craft hundreds of items used to build whatever structure imaginable and remake the world.
• Face monsters and dangers of the deep and fight them off with different weapons and protective devices.
• Customize your character’s appearance and complete achievements to earn skill points to boost dexterity, mining ability, and more.

Deepworld is available now for Mac at www.deepworld.com.

Sunnyvale, U.S.A. — On October 18, GamesCampus, an online game publisher announced the re-introduction of their colorful fantasy MMORPG, Legend of Edda. Originally announced in 2010, Legend of Edda spent a year in mysterious silence which is now being broken by a tidal wave of news and updates. Players can check out the new teaser site with plenty of new information at http://legendofedda.gamescampus.com/teaser.

“So much has changed in the last year, that we’re changing the game’s title to reflect these upgrades. Legend of Edda is back with a vengeance, and that’s exactly what we’ve called the new version - Legend of Edda: Vengeance!” said Hubert Yee, Head of Marketing at GamesCampus. “We’ll have a landslide of news starting October 18 and continuing through the rest of the year.”

GamesCampus, alongside EYASoft, has been toiling endlessly to completely overhaul the original Legend of Edda system, and that work is finally coming to an end. Legend of Edda players will soon be able to rejoin their friends in a mystical world filled with ancient myth and ageless foes. Here’s just a small preview of the changes players can expect to see in the release of Vengeance.

Players will be blown away by the Revamped Skill System. Each character now has a better defined role and their class skills have been redefined, refined, or added. What’s an MMORPG these days without those coveted and whacky Achievements? These new goals are a mix of fun, frantic, and downright silly, and can reward players with special items upon completion.

An ever-important Economy Re-balancing has been levied across all items. Many Item Drop Tables have been adjusted so players now receive more appropriate loot for their level and region; item availability has also been tweaked so players will have a larger pool of zone options to hunt in. Dress for success with the improved Set Items in Legend of Edda: Vengeance.

Sets now have better stats, and players can watch for new sets that will be coming in the future. Tired of smashing your armor into pieces? The Upgrade System has been improved across the board, with better success rates and stat changes. Stat increases are now expressed in a percentage, which will make their usefulness more clear.

There’s plenty more changes to be announced before the end of 2012. Players can re-join the Legend of Edda: Vengeance community by liking the Facebook or following @legendofedda on Twitter. There will be plenty of news to share in the coming weeks leading up to the game’s closed beta and launch.

Hamburg, Germany — Mail.Ru Games, publisher of internationally successful online games such as Legend: Legacy of the Dragons, Allods Online and Gunblade Saga, is really turning up the heat on players of the action-packed online strategy game RiotZone. It all kicks off in the second week of October, with extra battle rewards. From the middle of October on, it’s one event after another, from PVP events, to epic confrontations. The glorious finale will be the eagerly-awaited opening of the Auction House.

The Face of the Enemy

From the middle of the month, mercenaries can look forward to a new daily mission and PVP battle. Here’s a highlight from the latter: The infamous faction leaders, who usually prefer to pull the strings from behind the scenes, will step out of the shadows and take command of their troops in person for this strategically important battle.

What’s more, two other events promise exciting stories, extra rewards, and other high-tech upgrades for brand-new items that will be introduced to the game. Cunning commanders can also sell surplus munitions in the Auction House that will be opening soon, or get hold of the rare upgrades they need there themselves.

Fight for a Good Cause

In the MMO RiotZone, two competing organizations go up against the rule of the cruel Dictator. The fighters of the Scarlet Alliance, who want to establish the rule of the people, and the Crown Coalition, which stands for a cool-headed, rational approach. As commander of a mercenary squad, the player enters the service of one of these organizations. You’ll have to intercept convoys, set up ambushes, and target the Dictator’s entourage in order to weaken the regime.

Alongside all that, the followers of the enemy faction need to be kept in check. After all, when the Dictator falls, the right people need to come to power. There’s no time to rest, not even between battles. Commanders have to build up the camp and train their units, keeping track of their finances, and making new munitions.

From level 5, players have access to a wide range of exciting PvP features, such as gathering resources, group battle, or raids behind enemy lines. The outcome of the multi-player battle determines who will take control of the game zone.

The massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) will play host to a wondrous world in which magic and technology vie for supremacy, and players will be caught in the middle as they embark on a quest to prevent calamity.

To aid them in that task, players have access to Superstar transformations, allowing them to assume the form of previously slain bosses. These transformations are far more than cosmetic, temporarily giving players significant stat boosts.

Pet companions are integral to combat as well, fighting by the player’s side from the very beginning of the game. Pets also share in the Superstar transformations, taking on all-new shapes alongside their masters.

Mounts inStarlight Story are also for more than vanity; once equipped to a character these mounts provide stat boosts as well as the expected movement speed increases, and they also stay active during combat.

Starlight Story is browser-based and will not require a download, and like all Aeria Games titles, it will be free-to-play. Players can sign up for closed beta now at http://starlightstory.aeriagames.com.
