Castle of Heroes is an extensive strategy game that is playable for free through a web browser. Players will be able to choose from four different races and build up their kingdom in a fantasy world. The game combines the best elements of management, role-playing and strategy games and offers all round entertainment for players of all levels. With high quality graphics delivered through a web browser, Castle of Heroes will allow strategy fans to play anywhere they are with access to a browser, with no download nor subscription.

From today, the world of Gaia is open to players from all Europe for the first European closed beta phase. All users with a valid gPotato.eu account now have access to Castle of Heroes by a simple click from the official website and can start building their realm in a fully localised game. But be fast: access to the closed beta-test will be limited, and it’s first come, first served! More room will be made during the days following the start of the beta-test until the world reaches full capacity.

In order to allow players to experience the most content possible during the duration of the closed beta-test, gifts and contests will take place each week from today and users will be able to receive special cards, XP boosts, extra resources and many more surprises ! Closed-beta testers will also be able to get an early access to the final version of the game to be launched in early 2010, and will receive a special forum avatar to display their dedication to the game in the official game forums.

The official launch of Castle of Heroes is scheduled for early January in English, French, German and Polish. The game will be available on both PC and Mac, for free and with no download required: just login to the official website using your web browser and your existing gPotato.eu account details and you can jump in the battle right away !
