Tycoon Online is a family-friendly, competitive, be-your-own entrepreneur-based MMO. It is free-to-play, browser-based and does not require any downloads or installs. Players compete by building successful businesses and attempt to out-do each other by achieving the highest company value. Each round has thousands of players and lasts for 70 days.

The new USA server, which will launch on March 22, will feature the same gameplay as the original Tycoon Online, but will have a USA-based map and USA-based names for in-game characters.

The new USA version will also be the first server to implement Tycoon Online's new teams feature. The teams feature, similar to alliances or guilds found in many RPGs, allows players to share strategies and socialize with friends in-game.

“We decided to launch a USA version of Tycoon Online because of the unprecedented growth of our audience,” said Doug Granzow, CEO of Capitalist Enterprises, Inc. “The new server will not only make room for a great number of players, but also allows them to further customize their gameplay experience.”

Tycoon Online-USA is the second version of game available to English-speaking players. Local versions of the game are also available to players in Portugal, Belgium, The Netherlands, and Turkey. Additional countries are expected to launch later this year.

You can find the new USA version of Tycoon Online here, registration is open now, and the next round of gameplay begins March 22.
