After grabbing the license to publish ArcheAge and FFXIV in China, the fast-growing Chinese publisher Shanda Games will expand their market further. Recently, they signed contract with Singapore MMO publisher Cherry Credits and to bring several MMOs to Southeast Asia. 3 games have confirmed so far, they are Storm Online, Latale Online, and iL Soulbringer.
Storm Online features rich quests and some other systems that commonly seen in many other games, like the mount system, PvP, dungeons, etc. Latale Online is a cartoon style side-scrolling MMO that allows you to decorate your characters with tons of fashion items. Dungeon and pets are also part of the game. Currently, OGPlanet's operating the game's NA and EU version.
Among the 3 games, Storm Online will be the first to meet Southeast Asia as the game will start closed beta on December 16th. Latale Online just set up a teaser site while iL Soulbringer just confirmed the SEA version. Since Shanda Games is the publisher of Dragon Nest(CN) and the investor of the game's developer Eyedentity, it's said that Shanda is likely to bring the game to SEA. Nexon delays Dragon Nest in NA indefinitely, and the game's English version will probably release in Southeast Asia first.
