Summoners War is getting a prequel!
Summoners War: Chronicles was announced this week by Com2uS. Chronicles is set 70 years before the original Summoners War, a real time battle game that has gained a fair amount of attention thanks to the strong IP it is based on. Players choose up to three characters to take into battle from a growing roster of characters.
“Summoners War: Chronicles will bring a different gameplay experience and fun to many global users who enjoy MMORPGs,” said Jack Lee, the head of division at Com2uS. “We are working hard to provide high game quality and meet the expectations of many game fans around the world.”
Com2uS aims to launch Summoners War: Chronicles in the second half of 2020. Stay tuned for more information.

(Correction: The free card packs run until May 15th)
Jagex Ltd, makers of the popular MMO RuneScape, have announced that their collectible card game RS Chronicles will launch on Steam on May 26th. In order to celebrate the occasion, anyone who logs in between now and May 15th will receive three free booster packs to bolster their decks.
RS Chronicles is one of the latest additions to the battle card game genre, following the massive success of Hearthstone. The title sets itself apart from the competition in that cards are used to build adventures for the player’s hero, building up their abilities or tearing down their opponent in preparation for the final battle at the end of each match.
“It’s just two weeks until we officially throw open the doors to Chronicle’s Hall of Legends on 26th May, and its launch on Steam is only the beginning for what we have planned. We’ve already introduced brand new cards every week, increased rewards, balancing improvements, and there’s even more content planned for the months to come,” said James Sweatman, lead designer, Chronicle: RuneScape Legends.
Chronicle: RuneScape Legends is currently free to play with microtransactions. Chronicle: RuneScape Legends will launch on Steam in seven languages: English, French, LATAM Spanish, German, Polish, Russian, and Brazilian-Portuguese.

Cliffhanger Productions has declared bankruptcy and is in the process of liquidation, and players are understandably concerned about the future of their MMO Shadowrun Chronicles. Luckily for customers and Kickstarter backers, we’ve been assured that the game isn’t going anywhere and will continue to receive updates.
The details are a little fuzzy, but we’ve learned that while Cliffhanger Productions Software GmbH has declared bankruptcy, the studio that handles Shadowrun Chronicles (formerly Shadowrun Online) is not. Shadowrun Chronicles is supported by Cliffhanger Productions Games GmbH, an affiliate of the similarly named company and a completely separate legal entity to the former. Furthermore, CPS declaring bankruptcy doesn’t mean that that studio will shut down, just that they are in the process of restructuring and will likely return in one form or another.
