SEOUL, South Korea - Feb. 2, 2010
Joymax, an independent developer and publisher of interactive entertainment for the global market, today announced the start of two worldwide events for Silkroad Online, both celebrating the launch of Arabic language service for the fantasy MMORPG. The “We are the Members of the Arabian Road” and “Level-up Master” events will run from February 2 to March 2, providing players both new and old with the chance to win a bevy of real-world and in-game prizes!
The “We are the Members of the Arabian Road” event rewards players who buy Silk for the in-game item mall with between 2-10 raffle coupons, depending on the amount of Silk purchased. Six lucky winners will be selected in a global drawing on March 2, winning valuable prizes that include an 8-gigabyte iPod Nano and a brand-new laptop computer.
Meanwhile, the “Level-up Master” event challenges players to prove their gaming skills by reaching level 40 with a new character before March 2. Those who succeed will be in the running for prizes that include 10,000 skill points, Seal of Moon-grade weapons, and a PSP gaming system. Time is short, so sign up and start adventuring today if you want to join in the fun!

About Silkroad Online
Silkroad Online is a massively multiplayer online RPG that puts the player deep into historical fantasy, joining the Chinese and European civilizations along the Silk Road trade route. Traveling across Jangan, from China to Constantinople, players can make their fortunes as merchants, prey on the rich as thieves, or be protection-for-hire as hunters. The most recent expansion, Legend IV Plus: Hotan Fortress, provides players with a revamped Fortress War system and adds the imposing Hotan Fortress to the game. This grand structure at the heart of the Oasis Kingdom has never been captured, and only the greatest of warriors will be able to wrest control from its current inhabitants!
