True Games Announces Warrior Epic Details

We've previously mentioned True Games Interactive's first announced title, Warrior Epic, developed by Possibility Space, and they have now revealed the first details of the title, in preparation for the game's spring 2009 launch.

In the game, players are to "assume command of a warrior hall from which they manage their characters' adventures," and can recruit a number of warriors from different classes, with both characters and the hall able to be "upgraded visually as well as functionally."

In addition, there's rather a neat little twist to the game; if one of a player's character dies, they can either be revived or transformed into "spirits" which can be bound to weapons to increase their abilities and skills or used as summons.

Warrior Epic is to put "a heavy emphasis on focused, session-based missions," according to their recent release, by offering gameplay that can be split up into 20-30 minute sessions.

"Possibility Space and True Games are doing an incredible job building the Warrior Epic universe," said Jeff Lujan, Founder and Chairman of True Games Interactive. "The game creates this totally new genre of session-based MMO's with incredibly innovative gameplay features that have been fine-tuned and are sure to offer global appeal. Gage Galinger and Feng Zhu, the founders of Possibility Space, are highly talented video game veterans; their game design and creative talent combined with the amazing technical and publishing background of our team at True Games makes for the perfect development relationship."
