TERA Japan - Official desktop endorsed

Posted: 15 Jun 2011 07:32 AM PDT


The gaming industry and hardware industry in Japan do work closely with each other to promote their products. Last I remember, Final Fantasy XIV Online had a similar promotion back when it was first released. Now, TERA Japan is nearing the beta phase and the promotions are starting to emerge. 


Hangame Japan, the publisher, has teamed up with PC company G-Tune and introduce the official desktops for the game, NextGear-Micro and NextGear. Both systems come with Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit. The NextGear-Micro (USD 911.00) sports an i5-2400 CPU, 4GB of RAM and Nvidia Geforce GTX550Ti. The NextGear (USD 1484.50) comes fitted with an i7-2600 CPU, 8GB of RAM and Nvidia GTX570. You can click on the pictures below to see how each system looks like.


Customers who buy either of these 2 system will also get exclusive in-game items as shown below. They include a mount, 20 x Full Revive Scrolls (revive with 100% HP and MP), 20 x item to recover 100% MP, 20 x item to recover 100% HP and a level 35 ring which improves defense by 57, Strike by 30 and increase MP amount by 81. Not to forget a DVD installation client as well.
