Lockpick Entertainment has announced that Dreamlords The Reawakening, their free to play MMORTS will launch on Wednesday June 18.
In a not entirely surprising move, Swedish online game developer Lockpick Entertainment today announced that their anticipated Free-2-Play MMORTS game Dreamlords The Reawakening will launch on Wednesday June 18 (this year that is).
A long, hot and intense summer lies ahead…
The waiting is coming to an end and after the physical move of the servers earlier this week the team is ready to release their love child together with the community.
“We’re really happy to release The Reawakening now and I know that it is highly anticipated from the Dreamlords community. Drawing on experience from the development of our previous game Dreamlords but also through feedback and suggestions from our much devoted community, I’m convinced we’ve created the game we initially set out to produce last fall”, said David Rosén CEO and Executive Producer. “The Reawakening is in every perspective a game by gamers – for gamers and now I can only hope the players will have as much fun playing it as we’ve had developing it.”
A follow-up to last year’s acclaimed MMORTS debut title from Swedish Lockpick Entertainment, Dreamlords The Reawakening blends the immensely popular RTS and RPG genres. The Reawakening is set in a ravaged world where each player control a Dreamlord, a celestial warlord, in their quest to restore order and peace.
Dreamlords – The Reawakening is a Free-2-Play MMORTS that will be available at www.dreamlords.com from Wednesday June 18, 2008.

Well, it was just a matter of time since this game would've went F2p, just as many other games out there that jumped from the P2p boat in to the F2p mainstream. (Most of them coming from Asia)
-Archlord
-Rf online
-Bounty Bay online
-Shadowbane (i think this is the one with the player built cities)
-Cabal Online
And who knows how many more other MMO's out there will go F2p ... Anyway good luck with your project hope everything goes well, i would hate to see a Swedish developer go down... It would mean +1 for Asian games.
If they will take example from Archlord, Rappelz, .... and similar trash of so called "free" games ... to charge in-game objects with real money, they have really reached bottom for European company. After one month of playing "free" Rappelz my cost was double as would be for subscription to i.e. WoW. And not even to speak that WoW, Lotro, AoC, .... are The Games while Archlord, Rappelz ... are - imo - trash games with sole scope to get money from players under cover of "free" game. This was for me life time experience which will never be repeated.
