New Zone Introduced in Runes of Magic
The ‘Weeping Coast’ Brings 200 New Quests to Taborea
SAN FRANCISCO – June 25, 2009 - Frogster America, Inc. has begun implementing new content from the next chapter of Runes of Magic, Chapter 2 - ‘The Elven Prophecy.’ The company today released the first information about the region, the ‘Weeping Coast.’ The new zone coincides with the level cap being raised to 52.
The Weeping Coast is located in northern Taborea, and features a swamp landscape with branching channels. Fish-like creatures known as the ‘Tiktaalik’ make the marshes unsafe, and temples which are found on higher ground are populated by wild clans of trolls. The region is also where players will first encounter the Naga, an infamous evil race in the game world. These saurian people are entwined in ancient secrets which players will slowly unravel as the second chapter progresses.
A pueblo-style village lies at the heart of the zone and serves as a central contact point with merchants and quest givers. Around 200 new quests in the 'Weeping Coast’ will give adventurers plenty to do as they climb to level 52.
The opening of the ‘Weeping Coast’ zone and the start of the multi-stage launch of ‘The Elven Prophecy,’ is scheduled for August. The climax of the official release will then happen one month later in September when the chapter is fully implemented in the game.
A new trailer on the official Runes of Magic website offers a glimpse of the new territory: http://us.runesofmagic.com/us/videos,id28.html
