Frogster thus owns the European rights to the massively multiplayer online game with triple A quality claim for five language versions - besides the German, English, French and a choice of the Spanish or Polish version also the Turkish language version. Thus, Frogster will for the first time also serve the attractive Turkish market with 'Mythos'. 'Mythos' is scheduled for release in Korea still in 2010, while the European release date remains to be discussed but should not be later than Q1 2011. 'Mythos' was initially developed by Flagship Studios in San Francisco and is considered to be one of the most prominent action MMORPG projects worldwide. Many of the former development staff surrounding industry giant Bill Roper were beforehand involved in the creation of the blockbuster 'Diablo' from senior positions at Blizzard Entertainment. Hanbitsoft bought Flagship Studios in the year 2008. Frogster will establish the ambitious action-MMO Game in the European market in the so-called 'Hack 'n Slay' style. Through an individual adjustment of 'Mythos' to current MMORP Game standards of the western game market, Frogster will offer an online and free-to-play alternative to traditional computer game bestsellers such as 'Diablo 2', 'Titan Quest' or 'Sacred'. Just as successfully exercised with other titles before, Frogster will offer the players a variety of durable and consumable virtual goods as well as services for even more gaming fun for payment. The atmospheric work allows its players to choose from three different classes to individually develop them in turn according to choice of skills. Constantly on the chase for better items for their own character, players wander through the many different areas within a thrilling fantasy world. Frogster will continuously expand 'Mythos' together with Hanbitsoft. Update on current revenues The Frogster group has reached a new monthly revenue record in June both with their bestseller 'Runes of Magic' accounting for 2.2m Euro alone, as well as with the month's total revenue of the group.
