Los Angeles, CA - Acclaim Games releases the official game client for download in anticipation of the release for The Chronicles of Spellborn MMORPG (Massively Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game). Players anxious to join the game can begin downloading and installing the game on their PC now, so they will be completely ready to play once the game is available.
The first players that will have access to the Closed Beta are handpicked from the Acclaim chats, David Perry's twitter and Historian's beta tester list. This first group of players has been limited to 200-500 players to allow thorough game testing. After the first group of players test the game Acclaim will start activating 1,000 new accounts every 12 hours starting. Acclaim will activate accounts until they feel the servers are at capacity for the Closed Beta. The first player accounts to be activated will be players that have Acclaim Memberships and then at random from Acclaim's user base.
Starting check your Acclaim 'Account Summary' to see if you have Closed Beta access: http://www.acclaim.com/myaccount.htm it will say 'The Chronicles of Spellborn Gold Status Active'. If your account is ACTIVE launch the game client and login.
The Closed Beta will be available for a limited time and Acclaim hasn't decided if they will refresh player accounts once the game transitions into Open Beta. During the Closed Beta premium subscriptions will not be available for purchase.
In all regions, Spellborn will be a "Freemium" game, with a Free to Play zone and a required premium subscription service in order to access the full game past the Free to Play zone. The Chronicles of Spellborn Gold game client is completely free to download and install from the official website.
Acclaim will provide Spellborn game service to players in North America, South America, United Kingdom, Albania, Andorra, Australia/New Zealand, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Estonia, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Israel, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, Moldova, Poland, Romania, Serbia & Montenegro, San Marino, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain and Turkey
The nation management system allows guilds to plan the conquest of cities and even whole nations. More complex than simply engaging in PvP combat, guilds must oversee complex economies to keep their conquests strong. While managing a town, they plan everything from culture, commerce and industry, even down to the placement of buildings for the maximum output. Successful rulers are rewarded with rare items.
