Codemasters Online Gaming is pleased to announce the launch of the official RF Online Magazine, a glossy, 68-page, full-colour magazine that will run alongside the game, packed with news, interviews, exclusive fiction, previews of game events, player guides, guild profiles and in-depth features.

Produced by MMM Publishing and available worldwide from www.codemasters.com/eshop or www.rf-onlinegame.com, the magazine will be published quarterly and will run ahead to game updates and enhancements. This will enable the magazine to bring details of all the latest news, previews and exclusives to the RF Online fan base before they're released anywhere else.

Also on offer for RF Online subscribers is the chance to advertise your Guild and have it appear in the magazine; etched in print forever. Expand your Guild and increase your chance of taking down rival Factions - the RF Online Magazine will give you the notoriety you desire.

"We're excited to be producing the official RF Online Magazine for Codemasters Online Gaming" commented Ian Bond, Publishing Director at MMM Publishing. "We've been overwhelmed by the amount of fan fiction, guides and Guild adverts that have been submitted so far and we're sure that RF Online's growing fan base will love the magazine".
