Fiesta Online

Press Release PROVIDED BY GAMES PRESS

Hamburg, September 26th 2008 -Leading European MMOG publisher gamigo AG is happy to announce the final launch of the English EU version of the Massively Multiplayer Online Role-playing Game Fiesta Online, which has already taken German players by storm. While the game remains free to play, the end of the beta period is the ideal time for new players to register at http://fiesta-online.gamigo.com/ and experience the fascinating fantasy world of Fiesta. Beta testers can look forward to a special gift.

A new world ready for adventurers

With the end of the beta test European players can now enjoy the full Fiesta experience. But that doesn’t mean that there is no room for improvement. New updates and content will be released on a regular basis, with some major additions planned for the coming months. Among other things the mini-house functionality will be expanded, so players can furnish the interior of their house and invite other people to parties.

With the official release the item shop now commences operation. Players have the option to invest money in special items to accelerate their progression in the game or to individualize their characters. Among other things there are experience boosters, special mounts, unique houses with supplementary attributes and a beauty shop coupon that opens up a whole bunch of customization options. But most importantly, players with enough will and time can still enjoy the game for free.

For beta testers the switch to the final version doesn’t require any actions. The account remains the same and the client software will automatically update, so they can have a fresh start into the magical world of Isya. To thank the beta participants for helping to test the game, every player of the closed beta will get a free “starter package” which contains several useful items. Open beta testers have the chance to win one of 1.000 of these packages.

The German version alone has already attracted more than 100.000 players, so a third server has been opened today. Furthermore, French and Spanish versions are scheduled for the first quarter of 2009.

gamigo invites everyone to sign up at http://fiesta-online.gamigo.com/ and join the constantly growing community to experience great adventures and find new friends.
