Diablo III Possible 2011 Release?

Thursday, April 28th, 2011

diablo-3-announcement1 Speculation’s growing that Blizzard’s long, long coming Diablo three-quel could make it out in 2011, as the developer reveals it’s “in the home stretch” of development.

Speaking to the New York Times this week, Diablo III’s game director Jay Wilson said: “We’re definitely in the home stretch. We’re crunching. This is when the magic happens.”

Activision Blizzard went on record not too long ago that it’s not ready to announce a release date for the PC RPG because it doesn’t want to “disappoint” eager fans, or commit to a date and be forced to sacrifice on the game’s quality to hit it.

That “we would never do,” the publisher said in an investor call earlier this year.

Patchwork! Just In Time For Easter

Thursday, April 21st, 2011

mythos_amaray_packshot3d_en Comprehensive Update to Open Beta Brings Raft of New Features

Just in time for the long Easter weekend, the latest feature packed patch for Mythos has arrived. With only a few days of the open beta left before the game is released next week, the update includes many new features for players to get egg-cited about!

Besides a comprehensive localisation update and revised guild features the level cap was also increased from 27 to 50 which means that for the first time players can now enter the third region, ‘Umbral Peaks’ and face the many new quests and challenges the snowy region introduces.

No, that shriek you hear in the distance is not the gleeful sound of children discovering hidden eggs, it’s the sound of Uld’s monsters crying out in fear as they realize the odds just got tipped in players’ favour!

With the newly refined guild features, dungeons are now better designed for team play meaning that maybe, just maybe, you might emerge from the darkness victorious. But that’s not all, the guild member list and rights system have been completely revised along with a raft of new features including a guild message board, safe, rankings and the possibility to acquire buffs for the whole team.
