The Chronicles of Spellborn
Frogster and Spellborn International have announced an official release date for The Chronicles of Spellborn in Europe. Gamers can look forward to playing TCoS in English, French and German on November 27. Meanwhile the closed beta has entered a new phase. After this week's huge content update, Spellborn will be sending more beta keys out to those who've registered. Players still have the opportunity to put their name in the pot so get over to the TCoS site if you're up to the challenge.
As a fan of TCoS, I was disappointed that there wasn't an announcement from Acclaim nailing down a U.S. release date for the game. However, the publisher's Brand Manager assured me that although they hadn't made the final decision on a launch date, gamers can expect one shortly. I'll be looking out for a press release from Acclaim to share with all our U.S. readers. The full Frogster PR follows the break.
