GamesCom News: Runes of Magic Official Chapter II Launch Trailer Released

This year’s GamesCom in Cologne provides the venue for the premiere of the official launch trailer for the second chapter of Runes of Magic. The video for ‘Chapter II – The Elven Prophecy’ uses in-game graphics to tell the story of the Elves’ first appearance after living in exile for a very long time.

The threatened defeat of the Humans in battle with the Naga has the Elves entering the fray to aid their old allies against their own archenemies. Only together can the Taborean allies repel the threat which the snake-like beings rollout in the second chapter. Following the collapse of a powerful wall of banishment, the Naga have been freed from their exile and are now laying waste to the northern regions of the continent.

The trailer is now available on the official Runes of Magic website at: http://us.runesofmagic.com/us/videos,id30,chapter_ii_elven_prophecy.html

? The Frogster team is available to show the new features from Runes of Magic ‘Chapter II – The Elven Prophecy’ to the press at GamesCom from Wednesday through Saturday. Developer Runewaker’s Tony and John Tang, and concept artist Eva Widermann (only Fri. and Sat.) are also available for interviews.
