'Drift City' Dropped By Ijji.com, Picked Up By GamesCampus

Drift City is a unique driving game that incorporates role-playing game elements into a racing game environment, allowing users to customize their cars with performance-enhancing components, as well as cosmetic modifications that will seat each ride apart on the streets.

GamesCampus will take over service of and launch the popular racing MMORPG, Drift City, on its GamesCampus servers beginning November 1st, 2010. The Ijji.com servers will officially close on October 28th and current players can begin to transition their account to Games Campus starting now. Drift City players can find out how to transfer their account on the official website.

Drift City is the unique driving game that is part role-playing game and part racing game. It offers both mission modes and multi-player racing modes incorporated with cell-shaded style graphics for a unique racing experience. Players can choose their vehicles, modify and customize the design, and upgrade the performance of their vehicles. Once the game is available on GamesCampus.com, transferred players will be able to play on GamesCampus servers with all the newest unreleased updates. The latest updates include new maps, quests, new battle modes and brand new systems! Additionally, all vehicles obtained or purchased will also be transferred. Although in game currency will not be transferrable, GamesCampus will award players with compensation items.

The storyline for Drift City takes place in the near future, where the world's infrastructure has been hampered due to global shortages of oil. The focus of the world has turned to the remote archipelago in the Pacific at Mittron Island where an amazing natural resource, aptly named Mittron has been discovered. Due to an influx of vehicles called HUVs that have invaded the island to terrorize and disrupt the city and economy, the governing body of the island, the OMD, has called in elite drivers from around the world to restore order. Players can play in Mission Mode and complete objectives assigned by the OMD. Missions vary in their objectives and stipulations with some requiring speed while other missions emphasizing safety. Delivery Service Missions are ongoing and a battle against the clock. In the Battle Zone players can take on other drivers in individual or team races and players can join up with friends or create their own Crew and race against other crews.

"GamesCampus is committed to bringing a variety of quality online entertainment to our players so we are excited about the addition of Drift City to our lineup," said Uyen Uyen Ton Nu, head of marketing for GamesCampus. "Drift City offers a large and stylish persistent game world and hundreds of single player missions this game and when we take over service of the game we will also be bringing several new updates that players will really enjoy!" The transfer of Drift City to GamesCampus will include multiple updates to the game including a new 5th City map, new quests, new dealership system, game optimization and AI modification. Players will also experience a first drift shop upgrade, main screen modification, a GT Championship system, and a 2010 Special Event for the new service known as the Golden Harvest.
