SAN FRANCISCO - March 3, 2009 - Frogster America, Inc. today announced details of new content that is being added for the launch of Runes of Magic, the Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game (MMORPG) that is redefining the standard for free-to-play titles. In preparation for the game's March 19th release, the development team is adding an additional high-level dungeon, Kalin Shrine, a mysterious place where the dark mage Regin oversees minions that are sure to challenge any adventurer.
Located in the dusty wastes of the Dust Devil Canyon, the Kalin Shrine was built back in the mists of time, even before the blossoming of the of the old kingdoms. Ancient knowledge resides in the heart of the Shrine where Regin once kept this knowledge safe for his own followers, but now is using the power of the shrine for his own dark purposes. Well armed players are now being recruited to drive him out of the sanctuary. This is not a simple task; it can only be undertaken by Level 50 warriors, since the passages and levels of this lost shrine are populated by ghosts, rune guardians and grave robbers.
Boss level opponents also support the powerful magician in his sinister works. They all require unique strategies to defeat and a minimum six person group of adventurers. Just one of the obstacles for players to overcome in this struggle is a crystal tortoise which can freeze players in a block of solid ice for ten minutes. However, the most testing battles are at the heart of the shrine.
Using black magic, Regin is able to resurrect some of the slain bosses and summon them to his aid. Should adventurers master this quest and free the shrine from the evil influence, their troubles will be rewarded with booty in the form of rare armor.
