AsiaSoft Launches Grand Chase In Singapore And Malaysia

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

December 11 2007, Singapore - The chase is on, the chase is now! AsiaSoft Online Pte Ltd ("AsiaSoft") today launches the Open Beta test phase of its sixth game, Grand Chase ( www.GrandChaseSEA.com), the latest 3D-rendered fantasy adventure Massively Multiplayer Online Game (MMOG), in its stable of online titles. Grand Chase is targeted at the rapidly growing segment of pre-teens, one of the many groups that AsiaSoft caters to.

Online content has become an integral part of modern media and youth culture, and more youngsters have access to online games at an early age. Hence, with its adorable in-game graphics and simple game controls, Grand Chase is targeted at the new generation of gamers who are taking their first step towards the world of online edutainment, IT and the Internet.

"AsiaSoft is very privileged to have different segments of gamers enjoying our games, and we are especially pleased to introduce Grand Chase, our latest offering to young teenagers," said Ivan Seah, Marketing and Communications Director, AsiaSoft Online Pte Ltd. "We believe that tweens will enjoy the entertainment that Grand Chase has to offer and will find it a simple and delightful introduction to a vast world of online gaming content."

To ensure family- and child-friendly content, AsiaSoft will have Game Masters patrolling the game 24 hours a day for cyber predators, hackers and undesirable interactions. These measures taken by the publisher assure young Grand Chase gamers of a protected and controlled online environment in which to enjoy the game and to form meaningful friendships. "Grand Chase is a new breed of fast-paced arcade MMOG with strong emphasis in action gameplay," added Ivan. "While players have strong in-game content to explore and enjoy, AsiaSoft also recognizes the importance of keeping the online environment a fun and safe place for all young gamers to be."

Grand Chase transports players to the once peaceful Continent of Bermesiah, which has been overthrown into bloodshed and chaos by KazeAaze, the Queen of Darkness. Players are instantly recruited to join the Grand Chase towards freedom and victory as elite heroes, including the brave knight Elesis, the powerful mage Arme, and the elegant archer Lire!

A party platter of game modes, Grand Chase also features Player versus Monster (PvM) battles, Player versus Player (PvP) death matches, challenging quests and light-hearted mini games. The game's real-time attacks and combo skill executions will stir fans of old school arcade games, while its endearing avatar designs and customizations will thrill anime lovers and young gamers. Grand Chase is currently in Open Beta and interested players need only sign up for a free AsiaSoft Passport to be eligible for Open Beta on the Grand Chase website ( www.GrandChaseSEA.com). Players involved in Open Beta testing will gain access to certain ingame functions and modes for testing purposes.

AsiaSoft also intends to organize more programs and outdoor activities surrounding its two community initiatives, "Gamers Love Sports" and "Gamers Care", to complement and enhance its players' online experience. From outdoor pet walkathons to eco-friendly beach clean-ups, AsiaSoft hopes that the introduction of Grand Chase will be the start of a new, meaningful year of learning and social growth for its young gamers.
