Fantasy MMORPG Canaan Online Launches New Free Expansion

Gala Networks Europe, one of the leading free-to-play games publisher that operates the http://www.gPotato.eu portal, is delighted to announce the launch of a new expansion for Canaan Online, its free browser-based MMORPG set in a manga universe. The expansion is entitled Hero’s Rebirth, and allows players to reach new heights of power once they reach level 100, and will be released tomorrow in English, French and German at http://canaan.gPotato.eu.

Hero’s Rebirth gives adventurers the opportunity to go beyond level 100, showing that reaching that magic number is not the end of their epic journey. After tackling certain dungeons and gaining the items required, players can undergo Rebirth to be completely re-born at level 10, but with bonuses that will let them become far more powerful than if starting from scratch. Better yet, players who reach level 100 can continue to accumulate experience before being reborn, and it will be carried over into the reset character.

Characters that have gone through Rebirth will also find new challenges throughout Canaan’s world in the form of Hero Instances. These dungeons will contain many powerful monsters and will drop tokens that can be exchanged for great rewards. Of course, what would an adventurer be without his or her equipment and pet? In Hero’s Rebirth, both pets and equipment can also undergo Rebirth, being recreated at a lower level but much more powerful than they were before, giving re-born characters the perfect tools to tackle the Hero Instances.

The Canaan Online team is celebrating the launch of this new expansion with many special in-game GM events, where random lucky players will receive exciting new items including Hero’s Rebirth items and new costumes and pets, alongside fun contests and giveaways with great prizes. Whether gunning for Rebirth or starting from the beginning, old and new players alike will have the perfect incentives to spend time with Canaan Online and discover a host of challenging new dungeons and features.

Canaan Online is a free browser-based MMORPG based in a cute manga universe. No download is required, and the game can be played directly from a browser!

Critically Acclaimed MMORPG Allods Online Release Special Announcement

We are happy to inform you, the Allods Online community, first that Volume 4 will be the official release of Allods Online in Europe.

Volume 4 is now deployed on our test server at gPotato.eu and we are able to test the new mechanics that will be going live in Europe in a few weeks. The internal code name for Volume 4 is 2.0.2.xx in case you are looking for a Russian equivalence.

Of course, you can expect plenty of guides on new mechanics, as we have done for all our previous Volumes with our now famous “A closer look at…” series.

The translations for Volume 4 started several weeks ago! They are still in progress, and the amount is big, meaning that this expansion will once more bring tons of new content for your delight. Here are some highlights:

• Level cap is raised to level 47, with new skills and new layers added to the talent tree
• New PvE areas
• New layers of the Astral that you will have to unlock via quests

Besides all of that, we are actively working with Astrum Nival to speed up the release of future updates and patches in Europe, thus reducing the gap between Russian and European versions of Allods Online.

New Expansion Announced For High-Quality Anime MMORPG Zu Online

Zu Online: Cull the Golden Ox Demons

Players are drawn to Zu Online for many reasons, chief among them are the use of Chinese mythology to create a world like nothing else you’ve ever experienced. Whether you’re a fan of its engaging PvP battles or the beauty of its flash-rendered graphics, the world of Zu Online is anything but peaceful. The latest threat to vex Zu’s brave adventurers is a horde of Golden Ox Demons that have overrun Thunder Peak.

The decade-long war between the Immortals and the Demons still casts a shadow over Zu’s inhabitants and heroes alike. Hidden devils walk among its people in human form, spreading cruelty and craving blood wherever they go. An invasion of Golden Ox Demons only makes an already dangerous situation even more deadly.

The Telepath Envoy has learned that the evil Golden Ox Demons recently barged into Thunder Peak and stole the Silver Stones. Though the Envoy’s power is great, it is no match for so many of these creatures. He has sent out a call for help, seeking higher-level champions to cull the Golden Ox Demons in Thunder Peak and recover the Silver Stones.

Beginning March 1st, the event will be available to all eligible characters each day from noon to 2:00 PM and from 9:00 PM to 11:00 PM EST (GMT-5). Recover the precious Silver Stones to earn incredible silver stone gifts, as well as the Telepath Envoy’s eternal gratitude.

Dragonica: Features Of Awakening of The Ice Dragon Released

Gala Networks Europe, a leading free-to-play games publisher that operates the Gpotato portal, is delighted to announce more features for Awakening of the Ice Dragon, the upcoming expansion for its free action MMO Dragonica. Awakening of the Ice Dragon is set to raise the game’s level cap to 75, open up an entire new continent filled with game-play content and introduce a wide range of new features based around in-game markets and auctions. With only a few weeks left until the release, the gPotato Team has prepared a preview video as well as a series of artworks for an exclusive look at the features to come, which can be viewed at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ZgntVJv_hc.

The new continent of Pagosia will be open for exploration as soon as Awakening of the Ice Dragon launches. The new land offers players a host of new maps, new monsters and new challenges for high level players between levels 62 and 75. Some of these monsters may seem familiar to the seasoned adventurers, as they are the spectral versions of monsters that players may have encountered on their journey through the world of Dragonica.

The long-awaited Strategic Defence Mode (F7) will also be available, in which players must defend their core from invading monsters that follow paths around a specific route. Players may attack monsters directly, or progress more strategically by creating defensive structures to repel the onslaught. Furthermore, a whole new chain of hero quests and daily quests will be available to aid players in Dragonica’s new ultimate challenge – reaching level 75.

For anyone thinking of joining Dragonica, there are some exciting developments in the lower level ranges to look forward to when Awakening of the Ice Dragon goes live:  three new dungeons will be available, designed specifically for lower level player characters, and a series of feature and quest updates in the early stages of Dragonica will make it easier for new players to enter the fray.
