eWorld in Readiness to Launch New Online Game in China
Based on Success of Beta Testing, Company Prepares for Influx of Users
eWorld
Interactive, Inc. (OTCBB: EWIN) (the "Company" or "eWorld") is
pleased to announce that after a period of intensive and highly
successful closed-beta testing throughout China, eWorld's much talked
about online game, "Battle Zone" is entering the final stages of
preparation as the company moves toward open-beta testing and a
soon-to-be announced commercial launch date.
Battle Zone Online is a web-based, cartoon animated, multi-player
game that has been in development over the past 2 years. The game
builds on identified strengths adopted from a thorough assessment of
the competitive offerings in this popular and growing genre. Battle
Zone capitalizes on unique player techniques; interesting battle
scenarios, role-growing, intense competition and the opportunity to
develop team play, all of which foster the basis for a strong and loyal
player community.
During closed-beta testing, where participants were invited to
register to participate in game testing, Battle Zone actually
outperformed many of the games successfully launched in China during
2007. To put this into perspective, Mr. Lawrence Lee, VP of Operations
stated, "We have over 1 million registered users since the start of
closed-beta, and the number is expected to surge after open-beta."
In anticipation of this heightened traffic, eWorld has made
arrangements with two of China's major Internet Data Centre's ("IDC")
for adequate dedicated server capacity. China Netcom's IDC (in Harbin
province) will cover the 10 Northern China provinces; servers in China
Telecom's IDC (in Shanghai) cover all southern provinces. According to
the latest national survey, there are approximately 172 Million online
users in China distributed throughout the country. Ample server
capacity is considered a key to the successful launch of Battle Zone in
order to ensure system stability and client satisfaction.
"With the servers' capacity and flexibility, anywhere could be the
HOME FIELD for battle," remarked CEO Guy Peckham. "China has become the
most exciting market for online games. And I have confidence in my team
and Battle Zone's commercial launch."
Additional user information and access to the open-beta test site is available at eWorld Interactive's site at www.17dian.cn.
The commercial launch of the game is planned to occur concurrently with
the retail distribution of prepaid player cards, the release date of
which will be announced within the next several weeks.
