SUNFLOWERS travels to E3 2006 with some precious cargo: Introducing ANNO 1701 and ParaWorld
SUNFLOWERS, leading computer games producer and expert in the Strategy genre, will be presenting two major new titles at this year's E3 in Los Angeles: ANNO 1701 and ParaWorld. SUNFLOWERS invites partners and journalists to presentations as well as discus
Heusenstamm, April 20th, 2006. From May 10 -
12, 2006, SUNFLOWERS will present the two forthcoming game
highlights ANNO 1701 and ParaWorld at the Electronic
Entertainment Expo 2006 (E3) in Los Angeles. The SUNFLOWERS
stand, Meeting Room No 511 B / West Meeting Rooms, will
provide an opportunity to experience the two potential
Blockbusters first-hand.
Millions of ANNO fans across the globe have been waiting
impatiently for this moment: For the first time ever, the
fantastic Gameplay featured in ANNO 1701 (the third part of
the most successful game series of all time emerging from
German-speaking countries) will be presented to the public.
In addition to the extremely detailed graphics, which are
bound to set new standards for the genre, this unrivalled
king of Empire Building Strategy games boasts unrivalled
depth and comprehensive innovations. In terms of content, the
third part begins where its two predecessors ended. In the
age of exploration and sea trade, the player sets off to
discover new islands and establish huge metropolises. The
classic ANNO principle is, of course, preserved in this
latest version: Increase your influence and treat your people
well. E3 Visitors can expect nothing short of the best ANNO
game of all time.
SUNFLOWERS' second title, ParaWorld, is the result of what is
probably the most complex, costly and time-consuming RTS game
development effort to date to emerge from the German-language
territories. Just before its world-wide release, visitors can
explore the nearly-final version. This 3D Real-time Strategy
game takes the player to a prehistoric parallel world
populated by exotic tribes and awesome battle dinosaurs. In
addition to the inventive storyline and sensational graphics,
the "Army Controller" is ParaWorld's innovative highlight. It
allows the player to control all units as well as a tribe's
development centrally and comfortably, thus opening new
dimensions of clarity and ease of control in the RTS
genre.
"We are very proud to be in a position to present not one,
but two such ambitious and immensely promising titles - ANNO
1701 and ParaWorld - at this year's E3," says Adi Boiko,
President of SUNFLOWERS. "As we have already received
extremely positive international feedback with regards to
both titles, we look forward very optimistically to the
worldwide market launch of ParaWorld by the end of August and
ANNO 1701 in October 2006. To us, the E3 is the ideal
platform to communicate with partners as well as
representatives of the press and to establish and maintain
contacts."
The large stand (140 square meters; Meeting Room No 511 B /
West Meeting Rooms) features the new SUNFLOWERS Corporate
Design for the first time. The trendy yet calm ambience of
the three meeting rooms is ideally suited for interviews,
game presentations and relaxed chats away from the general
hustle and bustle of the trade fair.
