Set against the backdrop of a fantasy world, "Forsaken World" breaks new
ground by introducing a wealth of innovative features. In the game, a fantasy
world called "Grand Mundo" is created where players themselves alter the fate
of "Grand Mundo" through their individual actions in the game. The game
features exciting elements such as "Rule of Time," "Rule of Space," "Magic"
and "Divinity." "Forsaken World" adopts a system of annalistic history, and
allows players to impact core contents such as the epoch, the orbiting of
constellations and the birth of deities.
Mr. Michael Chi, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Perfect World
commented, "Forsaken World will be among the major releases by Perfect World
in 2010. It will be an important product in the Company's diversified game
portfolio. The game contains many new designs, and uniquely blends the
cultures of different regions. We've integrated many western features in the
game to give players new and exciting gaming experiences."
