Gamigo to Publish Mytheon in Europe

After a series of legal disputes, the MMORPG/RTS hybrid based on ancient mythology finally saw release. Now the North American publishers, UTV True Games have announced a licensing agreement with the popular German gaming portal Gamigo. Gamigo will be publishing Mytheon across European territories. No dates were mentioned in the official announcement, but expect things to be ready soon.

Mytheon is one of the most original free to play MMORPGs of 2010 and does a great job mixing gameplay elements from multiple genres. The standard action-RPG style combat is supplemented with the ability to summon multiple monsters, stationary towers, and to cast spells drawn from a constantly shuffling ‘deck’ of runes. Mytheon is the second game to be published by UTV True Games following Warrior Epic, another action oriented MMORPG.
