Tabula Rasa Blasts Off

NCsoft’s highly anticipated MMO Richard Garriott’s Tabula Rasa launched in North America and Europe today.

“Now the fun begins! I can’t wait to join thousands of other players in this exciting galactic war,” said Richard Garriott, the game’s executive producer. “It is time for us to release Tabula Rasa to the players. I am eager to see player reaction to the game, and am ready to build on what we’ve started here. We’ve got plans for new features and expansions for the foreseeable future and I’m hoping the players will enjoy the game and get excited about what’s in store for them next!”

The near future sci-fi MMORPG features several innovations to traditional MMOs including a Character Cloning System, that cuts out some major grind for players wanting to try other character classes with out having to start back at square one.

“We are all very excited about the addition of Tabula Rasa to our catalog of games,” stated Robert Garriott, CEO of NCsoft’s North American operation. “One of NCsoft’s goals is to provide different types of online gaming products – both within the ‘proven’ fantasy genre and outside the genre, as well. This game is truly unique; we hope that Tabula Rasa’s science fiction background and military combat action proves to be enjoyable to many types of gamers.”

Tabula Rasa is available at retailers for USD 49 and at the PlayNC^® store (https://secure.plaync.com/cgi-bin/Store.pl). Customers can purchase the Limited Collector’s Edition box from major retailers at an expected retail price of USD 69.99. Both versions of the game include the first month of subscription. A monthly charge of USD 14.99 kicks in after the first month.
