Chapter 290: A big wave of new games
During the New Year’s holiday, while the players were immersed in the joy of the holiday, a relatively explosive news spread among the players.
Emperor dynasty entertainment and fantasy gaming platform announced that they would be holding a game recruitment event that allowed both local and foreign designers to partic.i.p.ate. There were no restrictions on the platform and theme, but there were two things to take note of.
First, the game had to be released on either Emperor dynasty gaming platform or fantasy gaming platform and signed a generational agreement, which meant that it couldn’t be released on any other platforms.
Second, the organizers have the right to make the final decision. All the games that are being called for will be reviewed and given the resources to be promoted.
Of course, the rewards from this campaign were also very tempting. The excellent games selected after the review would receive a month’s reward of being recommended by all channels.
The full distribution channels referred to Emperor dynasty gaming platform, fantasy gaming platform, and all the smaller platforms combined, which took up about 70% of the distribution channels in the country.
No one could imagine the effect of such a wide-range recommendation, because such a situation had never happened in the domestic gaming industry.
What was certain was that even if the game was complete garbage, it would still make a lot of money after the recommendation.
What if the game was of good quality? That could create the next super explosive.
Of course, there was a limit to the number of ‘excellent games’. Everyone guessed that there would only be two or three of them at most, and that was impossible.
…
After all,”all-channel promotion” was like integrating all the scattered channels and resources together. It was achieved by squeezing out other games on the channels, so such precious recommendation spots couldn’t be randomly given.
Of course, Emperor dynasty entertainment would definitely make their own games, and even ZEN Entertainment would be a part of it. Most video game designers knew that the all-channel promotion was just a gimmick and would never really fall into their hands.
However, this gimmick was still loud enough, so it still set off quite a big wave.
At the same time, a few gaming companies, including Emperor dynasty entertainment and ZEN Entertainment, started to reveal information about the new game.
It was hard to say whether this information was leaked by accident or deliberately released, but considering that this information was not critical or confidential, and it could also create momentum for this event, most people felt that the latter was more likely.
Emperor dynasty entertainment had launched a key FPS game internally. It didn’t have an official name yet, but it was codenamed “Project: S “, Qin Xiao was fully in charge.
Qin Xiao had a very successful VR shooting game, Wolf Soul, so it was a walk in the park for him to make another FPS game.
However, in reality, Qin Xiao had only written the first draft of the design, and it was actually developed by two A-grade video game designers. This was because Qin Xiao was still in charge of the update for Wolf Soul. S “was not in high spirits, so after writing the first draft of the design, he gave it to someone else to do first. After confirming that the game could be successful, he planned to take over.
Of course, outsiders would not know about this.
Qiu Jiang and Yan Zhenyuan didn’t release any new games because Lin chaoxu didn’t think highly of their first draft. That was why Emperor dynasty wanted to use all their resources to release Project: S “.
There was also a game that was more popular, ZEN Entertainment’s three realms, which was a large MMORPG project.
Fantasy gaming platform had spent a fortune on the game, but since they didn’t have much research and development capabilities, they wanted to work with Zen Entertainment.
As for ZEN Entertainment, they obviously wanted this all-out promotion opportunity as well.
Both Project: S and three realms had a very prominent feature, which was why they stood out among the many first drafts, and that was that they took care of the largest number of players.
In fact, as the two most popular genres of games on the market, FPS games and mmorpgs both had very successful works.
There were wolf Soul and Inferno a.s.sault in FPS games, while there were Legend of the Sword, moon G.o.d’s prophecy, and heavenly justice of the Three Kingdoms in mmorpgs. These were all well-known premium games that had been tested and proven by the market.
Without a large-scale technological revolution, how could it be easy to surpa.s.s these already successful games?
Therefore,”Project: S “and” three realms “were both trying to take a different path. This was also a change that had been made to accommodate the full-channel promotion this time.
For example:
Sacrifice some quality to reduce the configuration requirements.
Develop a variety of leisure games to maximize the feelings of non-hardcore players.
It was an extremely complex social system with generous rewards.
It fully supports both VR and PC dual-ends, as well as data synchronisation.
All of these changes were to be able to capture the largest number of users and increase the possibility of it becoming a super popular game.
Especially “Project: S, as an FPS game, the PC side was already severely outmatched by the VR side. It was a little too much to make a dual-terminal mode, but it was still done.
After all, in “Project: S had to be different from Wolf Soul and raging inferno a.s.sault, and the best gimmick was the dual-end version.
Of course, the players wouldn’t know the details. They only knew that these big companies were making big moves and that there would be a few new games to play next year.
This was not the end.
Not long after, Emperor dynasty entertainment revealed that they had reached an agreement with GA to act as COG’s proxy.
This was far more of a topic effect than the fragmented information from before.
This was because Project: S and three realms were just concept drafts, and nothing was set in stone yet. However, COG was already very famous in the small circle of Chinese players.
Clearly, Emperor dynasty entertainment had more than one hand in the game. They were planning to place a portion of their bets on this new foreign game.
Although COG wasn’t very popular yet, the veteran players of COG could vaguely sense the bright future of this new game genre. They paid more attention to this news than the other two games.
After all, he was getting tired of playing with FPS and mmorpgs and needed to change to something new.
Of course, the players had different reactions to this news. Some were looking forward to it because with Emperor dynasty gaming platform’s channel as a guarantee, there would be a lot of players after COG was officially released. There were also people who were worried that Emperor dynasty Entertainment’s brain would go haywire and destroy the game.
However, in general, after a series of information bombarding the players, the players ‘antic.i.p.ation for these new games rose. Even many players who had never heard of COG before were asking around about what kind of game it was.
For Emperor dynasty entertainment and fantasy gaming platform, everything was going smoothly.
