GOTEBORG, Sweden, October 29, 2010 - GameBlast — First Planet Company, developer and publisher of the largest
real money Massively Multiplayer Online Game, announced today The Harbinger
Event. This major event, which will ultimately allow the players to determine
its outcome, will take place from November 9th until early December.
In this limited time event, which will unfold in several stages,
Calypso's colonists will face a new and evolved enemy invading the landscape
of Calypso. Under direction from the military, colonists will have to recon,
hunt and repel a technologically advanced new nemesis. Is this relentless foe
only here to hunt humans, or is it a harbinger for something far worse?
The Harbinger Event will feature new enemies to fight, a gripping
storyline complete with new missions, a new environment, and an ending
determined by the players. Colonists will be able to participate and find
rare and valuable new items during the event. Those who take up the Harbinger
challenge will also receive a special diploma from the Calypso Defense Forces
documenting their part in the largest battle for survival ever seen on this
planet. Since Planet Calypso is free to download, anyone can simply download
the client and get started defending the world.
