Posted: 28 Nov 2011 12:35 PM PST

Today marks the official launch of Evolution, Land of Chaos Online (LOCO)’s latest expansion.

The expansion adds the city of Arhonnas, a persistent area that players can interact with NPCs (including quest givers and vendors) as well as each other, with many new perks and features to discover. Touchdown, a new football-inspired game mode, challenges players to carry a flag from the center of a map to the opponent’s flag point, with the highest scoring team at the end of the game declared the victor.

LOCO has also implemented several upgrades to the game client, including an updated UI, improved newbie tutorial, a new achievement system, and an improved matchmaking system.

Only the Strong Will Survive – LOCO: Evolution Officially Launches

New Era of LOCO – Land of Chaos Online Available Now, Includes New City, Game Mode, and More

MUNICH – November 28, 2011
alaplaya, the leading international free-to-play gaming portal, today announced that LOCO: Evolution, the highly anticipated expansion to LOCO – Land of Chaos Online, has officially launched and is now open to all players worldwide. LOCO: Evolution is a free-to-play MOBA (Multiplayer Online Battle Arena)-style game with RPG elements, and features all the tactical gameplay and third-person action the original LOCO is known for. Evolution brings with it a persistent city for players to explore, a new faction known as the Legion of Heaven, a new game mode, and a slew of other new features that seasoned veterans and casual players alike can experience for free by heading to: http://loco.alaplaya.net.

Starting today, LOCO: Evolution players now have a place to congregate and engage with brand-new NPCs and real-world friends (or foes) alike: the city of Arhonnas. Combatants can roam this persistent city and interact with a variety of shopkeepers and quest givers, allowing them to pick up new missions, upgrade collected items, purchase pets, trade items, store inventory, and even more perks previously not available in the original LOCO.

A new game mode, Touchdown, has also made its way to LOCO: Evolution for those looking for a different sort of tactical challenge. In this football-inspired game, players are tasked with carrying a flag housed in the center in the map to their opponent's flag point. Each flag successfully carried to the opposing flag point counts as a point, and the team with the highest score when time expires is proclaimed the victor.

Coinciding with these additions, alaplaya has also implemented a substantial amount of technical upgrades to the LOCO world. Along with an updated UI, which includes easy-to-navigate menus and a revised tutorial for newcomers to the game, Evolution also gives players brand-new achievement and matchmaking systems. The achievement system sets special targets for players and makes it easier for brave combatants to obtain new heroes, while the matchmaking system ensures that there is no wait time to enter a match, letting LOCO: Evolution players get right into the action.

Star Supremacy Releases New PvP Arena and Battle System Update

Suzhou, China – November 28, 2011 – Barbily Games’ Star Supremacy will be launching 2 big updates in the game: a PvP Arena “Galaxy Overlord” and a feature in the current battle system that will allow players to control their defense fleets.

As seen on their update page:

The universe needs heroes, and heroes shall lead their force to rebel the enemies and make miracles. Our brand new arena competition, Galaxy Overlord, shall test players in a variety of ways:

1. Brand new Rank system for Galaxy Overlord: the more players you defeat, the higher rank you will get.

2. Win Honor points in Galaxy Overlord.

Our most important update that we will be implementing to our players is the Defender's Battle Control, which will give the defenders the ability to be able to join in and control the battle.

In the later updates, more features will be added in. For example, Honor Shop, which offers cheaper and special items, and Honor equipment set with special attributes. You can get all of these amazing items using Honor points. With all of this in mind, get ready for battle and face off against other players!

Thomas Lu, Senior Business Director for Barbily, said that “not a lot of RTS games allow you to control your fleets in battle. Our new update will allow players to go into battle against NPC or other players and actually control their defense fleets. A lot of browser-based players love PvP arenas so we are very excited about this update release.”

Thomas Watson, Public Relations Manager for Barbily, emphasized that “we do a lot of research and players aren’t aware how much we put in to make sure we want to provide a game that they want to play. We read feedback about our game and see what players like and don’t like. Players within the community and outside the community expect a lot and we want to meet expectations on a high level. The battle system and PvP arena update are just the beginning. We plan to update and release more features very soon. We expect Star Supremacy to be a leading sci-fi browser game for next year.”

It looks like Barbily Games is definitely a company to look out for this month and next year. Do you accept the challenge to play one of the newest browser games of the year? Take a break and play a sci-fi RTS…Star Supremacy awaits you!
