Heroes of Gaia
MMORTS accrues 1,000,000 active users.
LOS ANGELES, Calif. – March 17, 2010 – SNAIL GAMES USA announced today that HEROES OF GAIA, the innovative browser-based RTS MMO currently in Open Beta, has now reached a monthly active-user population of more than 1,000,000 users worldwide.
“We’re thrilled with the popularity of HEROES OF GAIA and its rapid growth in the U.S. and Asia,” said Michael Chan, VP Global Business for Snail Games USA. “Since we began our Open Beta a few months ago, we’re seeing strong pickup in our core markets and are getting ready to announce expansion to several huge new regional and national markets, including India, Latin America, and others. HEROES OF GAIA sets the standard for graphics and gameplay in browser-based games and we are seeing very positive trends across the boards.”
“Many browser-game developers and publishers claim traffic numbers which are based upon ‘total lifetime accounts,’” added Chan, “and this can be highly deceptive because many of those accounts are inactive. Our 1,000,000+ HEROES OF GAIA users are unique accounts who have logged in during the past 30 days.”
Players interested in discovering HEROES OF GAIA for themselves can register for accounts at www.heroesofgaia.com or through one of our partners.

Based on the classic strategy-game architecture pioneered in legendary PC strategy titles, HEROES OF GAIA allows gamers to choose one of four warring factions (Humans, Elves, Orcs or the Undead) and challenges them to build castles, recruit mighty heroes, quest for magical items, summon up devastating armies and rampage across the land battling against live players and NPCs alike in thrilling strategic combat to dominate the kingdom of Gaia. The game is free to play and browser-based, which means no heavy client to download or install and no subscription fees – ever.
