In the upcoming 'Chapter II – The Elven Prophecy', the name giving elven will find their way into the game world Taborea. A widely branching background story entwines about the fairylike race with many new challenges that are going to be told in lots of new quests and new quest lines. Thus, 'Chapter II – The Elven Prophecy' will lead players into new game regions characterized by elven lore like an elven island at the shore of Ravenfell.

With a new PVE server ‘Reni’ opening, Frogster America will have the ability to handle more players as the population continues to grow. The new server opening also gives players the opportunity to get in the game and be the first to complete quests, reach the highest level, and build their reputation. In celebration of the Independence Day holiday, Frogster America will also feature 75% off item shop specials, and for a single diamond, players of all levels can get a bundle of fireworks and join in the festivities. Finally, a levelling contest for players and guilds will be held on the new server.

“We want to celebrate the Independence Day holiday with the Runes of Magic community and we’ve come up with a lot of ways for everyone to have fun,” said Lars Koschin, CEO of Frogster America, Inc. “We’re already planning a lot more events for our players in the coming months as Runes of Magic continues to grow in popularity.”

The new server opening and in-game fireworks coincide with the second leg of an online quest that Frogster America is operating with partners across the internet. Players can visit participating sites and get one of 5,000 exclusive items for their in-game character. The exclusive items are part of a set of five pieces that if collected from each partner site, give an even greater bonus to the player’s in-game character.

With an extensive range of features Runes of Magic prepares to redefine the standard of free to play massively online role playing games. Runes of Magic conveys an absorbing story through more than 1.000 quests embedded in an atmospheric fantasy world. Players can choose between six main classes and combined with a secondary class they present 30 individual combinations of character classes over all. All characters possess unique skills with impressive combo attacks and can use mounts like war horses and more. A particularly attractive feature for guilds and players is the possibility to arrange their own virtual homes with individual furnishing. Thanks to an extensive crafting and reputation system, thrilling PvP, as well as demanding dungeons and boss-monsters, no wishes remain unsatisfied.
