Berlin, 5.07.2010: Frogster Interactive Pictures AG, international
publisher of massively multiplayer online games with headquarters in Berlin
and subsidiaries in Berlin, San Francisco and Seoul, has purchased the
four-year European license to the massively multiplayer online game
'Mythos' from Hanbitsoft, one of the leading Korean online games developers
and publishers, listed at Kosdaq. Frogster thus owns the European rights to
the massively multiplayer online game with triple A quality claim for five
language versions - besides the German, English, French and a choice of the
Spanish or Polish version also the Turkish language version. Thus, Frogster
will for the first time also serve the attractive Turkish market with
'Mythos'. 'Mythos' is scheduled for release in Korea still in 2010, while
the European release date remains to be discussed but should not be later
than Q1 2011.
'Mythos' was initially developed by Flagship Studios in San Francisco and
is considered to be one of the most prominent action MMORPG projects
worldwide. Many of the former development staff surrounding industry giant
Bill Roper were beforehand involved in the creation of the blockbuster
'Diablo' from senior positions at Blizzard Entertainment. Hanbitsoft bought
Flagship Studios in the year 2008.
Frogster will establish the ambitious action-MMO Game in the European
market in the so-called 'Hack 'n Slay' style. Through an individual
adjustment of 'Mythos' to current MMORP Game standards of the western game
market, Frogster will offer an online and free-to-play alternative to
traditional computer game bestsellers such as 'Diablo 2', 'Titan Quest' or
'Sacred'. Just as successfully exercised with other titles before, Frogster
will offer the players a variety of durable and consumable virtual goods as
well as services for even more gaming fun for payment. The atmospheric work
allows its players to choose from three different classes to individually
develop them in turn according to choice of skills. Constantly on the chase
for better items for their own character, players wander through the many
different areas within a thrilling fantasy world. Frogster will
continuously expand 'Mythos' together with Hanbitsoft.
Update on current revenues
The Frogster group has reached a new monthly revenue record in June both
with their bestseller 'Runes of Magic' accounting for 2.2m Euro alone, as
well as with the month's total revenue of the group.
