'Toy Strikers' Announced

by Rainier on Feb. 5, 2004 @ 8:12 a.m. PST

NCsoft Corporation today announced Toy Strikers, the third of NCsoft-developed games following Lineage and Lineage II. The game maker has been developing Toy Strikers over the past year. Unlike its two predecessors Lineage and Lineage II, both of which are MMORPGs (Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game), Toy Strikers is a massively multiplayer shooting game, and the first product for casual gamers developed by NCsoft.

In Toy Strikers, gamers fight against a group of gangsters (Devil Toys) who want to take over Toy Land. The characters that gamers can choose are cartoon-like toy airplanes. The planes can be transformed into other forms and be combined into a larger one, adding flexibility and fun to this new online game.

Many casual online games only allow eight players at a time in one battle field. Some allow 32 to 64 players; however, Toy Strikers allows up to 200 players to participate on one battle field - with many per server! In addition, it offers a specialized armor system, exciting battles, and a simple interface. Having completed internal testing, Toy Strikers is expected to go to closed beta service in February 2004.
