Black Prophecy

gamigo AG and Reakktor Media GmbH have officially announced that they will be working together on Black Prophecy, the highly anticipated MMO space shooter with in-depth role-playing elements. gamigo AG now owns the global distribution and publishing rights for the game.

Patrick Streppel, member of the gamigo executive board, is enthusiastic about the new game: “Reakktor’s Black Prophecy will breathe life back into a genre previously forgotten. The game features graphics of the highest quality, a rich and meaningful story, and strong community features. Since we’ve begun collaborating with Reakktor, we have expanded greatly upon the concept of the game and thus are able to offer one of the first top-of-the-line free-to-play MMOs.”

A lot has happened in the development of Black Prophecy in the past few weeks. The biggest change has been the new direction as a free-to-play online game, previously unheard of for a game of this quality. Among other things, a crafting system was added and the layout of the game world was opened up. In-game dialogue will be recorded by professional voice actors. The one-and-a-half hour long orchestral soundtrack provides a rich and varied score of background music.

Kirk Lenke, CEO of Reakktor Media GmbH, said “We are excited to have found such a strong partner in gamigo for the publishing and distribution of our space action MMO Black Prophecy. gamigo has the necessary skills and abilities to turn our product into a global MMO blockbuster.”

Black Prophecy is expected to go into closed beta testing in April 2010.

    Do they really need to acquire this many games at once? They already have like 10 other upcoming games… IMO they'd be better off just focusing their resources on one or two good MMOs.

    This IS one of their good MMOs. Or at least, that's what I'm hoping for.
