InnoGames publishes Bounty Hounds Online in Europe

Hamburg and Taipei, November 18. InnoGames, one of the worldwide leading publishers of Massively Multiplayer Online Games (MMOG), and XPEC Entertainment, a leading game developer in the Great China Area in all console platforms and PC-Online dimensions, have agreed on a major licensing deal. In 2011, InnoGames will exclusively publish the Sci-Fi MMOG Bounty Hounds Online (BHO) in Europe. The game has been a great success on the PlayStation Portal. In Taiwan, its MMOG version is going to be released in December 2010.
“We are extremely happy about the partnership with XPEC Entertainment and their new game Bounty Hounds Online. It has already proven to have a well working concept on the PSP and we are very confident that European players will love the game. We believe that there is a lack of free-to-play high quality Sci-Fi MMOGs and hopefully, BHO will fill that gap”, Michael Zillmer, co-founder and Managing Director of InnoGames reveals.
XPEC Entertainment has chosen InnoGames as the BHO publisher in Europe because of their long term experience in operating online games and their well working community management. “InnoGames has rapidly grown in the last years and all the games they published have been a success so far. This really convinced us that we have found the right partner to conquer the European market with BHO”, Aaron Hsu, Chairman of XPEC Entertainment says.
In Bounty Hounds Online, the users will role play as a mercenary who is hired by a private ammo enterprise to explore the distant galaxy. It is his task to lead thousands of fellows through innumerable dangers in order to earn handsome rewards. They will suffer fierce shellfire in battlefield and fight against brand new mechanic species. Only the strongest ones may have a chance to unveil the conspiracy behind justice. Of course, they can capture various extraterrestrial creatures. Technically, BHO is based on the GameBryo engine, which is amongst others used by Fallout 3.
On www.facebook.com/bountyhounds, there are already a brand new trailer and some graphics.
