Ministry of War

"Quantum leap forward" in browser-based MMOGing enters closed beta.

LOS ANGELES, Calif. – July 19, 2010 – Ministry of War TM , SNAIL GAMES' upcoming free-to-play MMO game, will enter its closed beta phase on July 20.

Ministry of War TM (MoW) represents a quantum leap forward in browser-game design. With spectacular graphics, a huge world map, and robust real-time strategy gameplay, MoW will take its place as the premier free-to-play MMO browser title and the best-looking browser game in the world.

MoW is a true MMO RTS which is played completely in the browser window and requires no download ever, giving players the ability to play the game instantly anywhere.

The game has a feature which is unique in the world of browser MMOs: an Endgame. There are four civilizations in MoW: Rome, China, Egypt, and Persia. If one of them rises up and defeats the other three, the winning civilization will be declared a MoW Champion and the Realm will reset, with spoils to the victors. For this reason, there are no sidelines in Ministry of War. You must form strategic alliances and fight, or your empire and your entire civilization may be swept from the Realm. Each Endgame victory will form a chapter in the history of MoW.

Players of MoW will also experience the game’s comprehensive Resource, Trade, Quest, Leveling, Battle, and Guild systems.

Players can request a beta key at www.MinistryofWar.com. Beta keys will be distributed on a first-come, first-served basis to a limited number of players. Other players will be placed on the MoW Beta Key wait list.
