Perfect World announces new MMO 'Jade Dynasty'

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) May 14, 2009 -- Perfect World Entertainment Inc. announced that they will release a new free MMORPG named "Jade Dynasty" some time early this summer. "Zhu Xian," the popular Internet novel and one of China's most popular free-to-play games, is the inspiration for English-based version "Jade Dynasty."

According to the provided description, "'Jade Dynasty' features a unique martial arts style game play wrapped in a huge, evolving game world." Really? What a predictable and generic description of the game. When will a press release not say that a game is unique, huge or evolving?

"Players delve into a system where choices between good and evil begin to shape their game play experience as they obtain different skills, items and ultimately, a story that is unique to every player," says the press release. Sounds a bit like "Fable" and the upcoming "Star Wars: The Old Republic."

Here is some more fluffy promotion for you:

"As more players look to Free-To-Play games for innovative new gaming experiences, we are excited to introduce 'Jade Dynasty' as we feel its depth of play and extensive feature set will resonate particularly well with both free-to-play gamers and more hardcore fans of the MMO genre," said Dr. Alan Chen, CEO of Perfect World Entertainment Inc. "'Jade Dynasty' exemplifies the exceptional level of quality that gamers have come to expect from Perfect World Entertainment and as a result we expect it will be one of our most successful releases to date."

"Jade Dynasty" could actually be a decent game once it's released, and may surprise us all; but everything that's been written to promote "Jade Dynasty" seems to indicate that it'll be nothing all that special or interesting, and just another of the many similarly themed free-to-play MMORPGs.

If you want to find out yourself, there will be a closed beta on May 26th. Register at the official site to get in.
