SUBA Games
Wicked Interactive's platform to host G4BOX's Metin2 and Cross Fire.
Toronto, CANADA-December 19, 2008-Wicked Interactive ( www.wickedinteractiveltd.com),and G4BOX ( www.g4box.com), both North American MMO Publishers, announced today that Wicked Interactive's SUBA Games platform ( www.subagames.com), will now host G4BOX MMORPG, Metin2, and its upcoming online FPS, Cross Fire.
The new partnership will result in numerous benefits for both SUBA Games and G4BOX players. A new unified login system will allow Cross Fire and Metin2 players to access all SUBA Games properties, including ACE Online, Priston Tale, and the upcoming Priston Tale 2: The Second Enigma, with their current G4BOX logins. Likewise, SUBA Games players will gain access to Metin2, and the exclusive closed beta of Cross Fire. Additionally, G4BOX games and SUBA Games properties now share a unified currency and community space. While the games have merged onto one platform, G4BOX and Wicked Interactive remain separate corporate entities.
"We are excited to welcome these two G4BOX properties into the SUBA Games library of titles," said Stanley Yu, Chief Executive Officer of Wicked Interactive. "The SUBA Games platform maintains an impressive lineup of MMORPGs to which we feel Metin2 and Cross Fire are worthy additions," added Howard He, Chief Executive Officer of G4BOX.
To coincide with its entry into the SUBA Games platform, the Metin2 website (now located at http://metin2.subagames.com) will be re-designed and re-launched to better serve the ever-growing Metin2 community. Current Metin2 users should be able to continue playing during the platform switch and site re-launch, though they may experience some minimal downtime. Both the Metin2 and Cross Fire websites and forums will be down on Friday December 19, 2008 from 9:00 AM - 2:00 PM EST while the games are moved to the SUBA Games portal.
The SUBA Games portal itself will experience similar downtime.
G4BOX's Cross Fire (now located at http://crossfire.subagames.com) will continue its closed beta test throughout the holiday season with an open beta launch expected on SUBA Games in early 2009. SUBA Games players will gain access to the closed beta test following its move to the SUBA Games platform.
SUBA Games properties, ACE Online ( http://ace.subagames.com) and Priston Tale ( http://pt1.subagames.com), will continue their respective holiday events and festivities into the New Year and should not experience downtime during the migration of G4BOX games to the SUBA Games platform.
