Bounty Bay Online
"Atlantis" add-on to surface on September 22nd.
Berlin, 06/08/2010: Frogster is to release a legendary underwater world this autumn. ‘Bounty Bay Online – Atlantis’ will be the fourth add-on to the pirate-themed MMO and will take high-level players to the synonymous sunken city, as well as other new locations, to take on new challenges starting from 22/09/2010.
‘Bounty Bay Online – Atlantis’ will see players setting anchor on the unexplored coasts of new island regions which are also host to two new instances. The journey will lead players through the Northern Islands deep in the Arctic Sea as well as to the more tropical climes of the Binimi Islands. Courageous players can also expect challenging opponents in an icy high-level instance in the Northern Islands. On the Binimi Islands in the Atlantic players can find the entrance to Atlantis, an enigmatic underwater world complete with its own challenging instance which awaits exploration.
The expansion includes a level cap raise up to a maximum of 150, a new reward system for discoveries, new armour sets for all character classes, set bonuses, and new armour crafting options.
Further information will soon be available on the official website of Bounty Bay Online: www.bountybayonline.com/en/atlantis .
About Bounty Bay Online
With Bounty Bay Online players enter the Age of Discoveries from the 15th to the 17th century. MMO fans are able to choose an online career as a merchant, sailor, fisherman, pirate or adventurer and make their fortune at land and on the seven seas. Alone or with a guild of players, many adventures and gripping quests lie on their way. Thousands of ancient discoveries on all continents like the pyramids of Gizah or the Chinese Wall are waiting to be explored. After exciting PvP combat at land and on the seas, strong guilds can take control of cities and entire colonies and thus decide upon their destiny. Bounty Bay Online features a unique trade system based on supply and demand. In April 2008 Frogster has started a free-to-play server with an integrated item shop as an alternative to the subscription model, so that new sailors can now roam the Seven Seas without any fixed costs.
