Ubi Soft Entertainment, one of the world’s largest videogame publishers, and Cyan Worlds, Inc., developers of the legendary video games MYST and Riven, today announced they have expanded the play test program for the upcoming title, Uru: Ages Beyond Myst for the PC in conjunction with the unveiling of a new community-focused web site, found at www.urulive.com.
"As we enter the final stage of the game’s development, we are excited to invite interested fans to assist us in improving and shaping the evolving world of Uru.” said Rand Miller, founder and CEO Cyan Worlds, Inc.
Play testers are invited to become among the first to experience the deepest, and most compelling Myst storyline to date as they participate in a modern day exploration and restoration of the ancient D’ni civilization. Uru (pronounced Oo-roo) includes a compelling single-player offline adventure in addition to an expansive persistent online experience, Uru Live.
Play testers will experience both the single player game and Uru Live. Candidates will need a PC with a broadband internet connection (see specs for minimum requirements below) and must visit www.urulive.com to sign up.
UruLive.com will be an active and ongoing gathering place for Uru fans to gain information about the game, meet other fans of the Myst series, interact with the developers at Cyan Worlds, and unravel the mysteries discovered during the live exploration of D’ni.
“Uru is a technological step forward for the Myst series enabling us to eclipse the beauty, grandeur, and mind-challenging elements of previous titles. Plus, with the option to join a constantly updated online universe, the adventure never has to end,” said Rand Miller, founder of Cyan Worlds.
