Igor Matsanyuk, the President of Astrum Online Entertainment lays stress upon the agreement reached. “I think very highly of the partnership between our corporation and Mail.ru. This is already our fifth game which connects us with the Russia’s largest Internet portal and we are quite satisfied with the results of our friendship. Both companies have been recognized leaders in their market sectors; so joining our forces is quite logical step amid current economic conditions”, said Mr. Matsanyuk.

“Online gaming market is soaring so this is a strategic direction for us. In order to strengthen its positions in this sector Mail.ru pays special attention to the development of partnership relations with leading market players. Legend: Legacy of the Dragons has already become a cult game, thus fully justifying its name; so our choice is quite understandable. We are confident that single step authorization feature offered to Mail.ru users will be in high demand and will seriously speed up further growth of MMORPG’ popularity”, said Dmitry Grishin, CEO of Mail.ru.

Legend: Legacy of the Dragons is a full-scale online role-playing game (RPG), which is situated in the world of Faeo. The war between the Magmars and the Humans seems to be endless. Two Great Dragons protect the interests of both races. There is nothing in the world that could withstand their strength, however, when chaos comes, even the Dragons are unable to keep fragile balance of power anymore. By entering the world of amazing adventures, the player will become either great warrior or crafty magician; will participate in bloody battles; will take a delight in victory and feel heartsick consciousness of defeat.

Over 4 million users have registered on Russian game servers alone since Legend: Legacy of the Dragons was officially launched two years ago. The game has become a winner of “People’s 10” Russian Web People’s Choice Award two times in a row in 2007 and 2008.
