Last Ankama creation to be shown at E3
Ankama Studio will be at the E3 (Los Angeles, May 10 - 12,
2006) to preview WAKFU, Dofus-Arena and the DOFUS extension
"Riders of the Dragoturkey".
WAKFU is the upcoming massively multiplayer
video game of Ankama Studio. While Dofus keeps on gathering
more and more players, Ankama Studio is already working on
the development of a new Massive Multiplayer Online Game. In
WAKFU, players will not only have to use the skills of their
characters to fight a fierce fauna and flora using magic,
martial arts or new technologies. They will also have to
build cities in a virgin universe while preserving nature
from destruction. Thanks to a universal and intuitive
language, players will interact to create alliances or to
take part in fights that will have a direct influence upon
the universe.
Date of release: end of 2007
Ankama Studio is proud to announce the imminent release of
Dofus-Arena. Dofus-Arena is currently under
Beta test. It is based on the Dofus fighting system and is
adapted to suit a 100%-PvP-tactical videogame. Each player
must create a team made of characters armed with spells,
weapons and items before they can face opponents in a 1vs1 or
2vs2 mode in the arenas which hide many surprises. The final
goal: to become one of the greatest masters of Amakna. During
the E3 2006, Ankama Studio will present the GOLD version
before its official release.
Date of release: Summer 2006
DOFUS is a remarkable MMORPG. With a
cartoon-like universe, a tactical turn-based gameplay during
fights, a devastating humor and a free version with no time
restriction, DOFUS became in less than a year a real
phenomenon (800,000 registered players including 50,000
subscribers). Ankama Studio announces the release of the much
expected extension "Riders of the Dragoturkey" for June 2006.
In this extension, new things will appear such as mounts,
breeding professions, new functionalities of communications
and exchange in between players as well as the enlargement of
the free zone.
Date of release: June 2006
