Well, “looms” is a bit strong a word for the upcoming release of Yuyan Online, a 2.5D massively multiplayer online role-playing game from Storm Entertainment, in Taiwan since the word pertains to an event that is about to happen.
Truth is, Yuyan Online won’t be released in Taiwan anytime soon. Here’s the lowdown from China-based online games portal 17173:
Chinese game developer Storm Entertainment has announced a cooperation agreement with International Games System, a developer of arcade hardware and software, and operator of online games. Under the agreement, Storm will license its first MMORPG, Yuyan Online, to IGS for operation in Taiwan. The game is set to launch in Taiwan in April 2009.
Wait a minute! What’s Yuyan Online anyway?
Yuyan Online, a 2.5D MMORPG that Storm Entertainment developed in-house, is an adventure and fantasy game with traditional Chinese settings. The background music of Yuyan was made by famous game music studio XiaoXu.
Let me just shut up and ask you to watch this teaser video of the game:
I don’t know about you, but to me the game looks like a Diablo II clone.
