IGG announces Tales of Fantasy
IGG has announced a new, upcoming MMO: Tales of Fantasy. (Not to be confused with the epic JRPG ‘Tales of’ series published by Namco-Bandai).
The MMO’s main selling point is mounted combat. Players will be able to tame a variety of creatures in the wilderness and use them as mounts. Players can then fight astride these mounts – even switch mounts mid-battle. “Horse” races will also be available for players to compete in on their steeds. The game also features a way for characters to gain their own wings, and a crafting system.
Alpha testing should “begin shortly.”
