Dragonica Online with the debut of the game’s web site located at dragonica.thqice.com.
Dragonica Gold is being introduced as part of the joint venture with between THQ Inc.
(NASDAQ: THQI) and ICE Entertainment ("ICE"), an operator of online games located in
Shanghai, China, to create micro-transaction-based massively multiplayer online ("MMO") games
that will be available.
Recently available in China under the name Dragonica Gold, where it has already become one of the most
popular MMOs, Dragonica Gold merges innovative 3D side-scrolling, fast-paced combat and a
comical, yet devastating, skill system into a single free-to-play MMO offering. The game is being
developed by Barunson Interactive and is scheduled to launch online and at retail this fall, but
fans can get a hands-on preview of the game when it opens for beta testing, currently scheduled
for summer.
"Our new online game platform integrates ICE’s online operating experience with THQ’s product
development and retail publishing expertise to develop and deliver innovative game content to
consumers," said Eddie Chen, CEO of THQ*ICE. "Dragonica Gold exemplifies the original and
entertaining casual MMO experiences that we plan to offer via our platform and we believe its
distinct perspective and pacing will excite a broad audience of online action fans."
