Com2uS released the official showcase 'The Prologue' of the mega MMORPG 'The Starlight' published by the company and developed by GameTales on its YouTube channel.
The showcase featured three Korean game greats, including the original and general director Jung Sung-hwan, art director Jung Joon-ho, and sound director Nam Joo-min, to sincerely unravel the philosophy and production process of the game. Game caster Sung Seung-heon and comedian Yoo Min-sang, well-known for his game mania, were the hosts.
At the showcase, the overall world view, including the planning background of 'The Starlight' and the inter-dimensional connection structure, was introduced as the voice of the developer. First of all, 'The Starlight', which heralded a new game experience with the slogan of '4th generation MMORPG', was reinterpreted to suit the modern sensibility of the existing game grammarDirector Jung Joon-ho expressed his confidence in the direction of development, saying, `We will be able to give a new generation a different experience by implementing the sensibility of the genre with the latest technology.'
Director Jung Sung-hwan then explained about the background of his work, which combines four novels he wrote, such as 'Silent Tail', 'Golden Narcissus', 'Chroma Legend', and 'Holinite', into a single multiverse, "Solving the case of 'Caus' is the center of this story."
At the same time, a total of five characters were also released: 'Irisia', 'Rover', 'Silkira', 'Lynew Bombas', and 'Deckerd Lombel'. Each character reflects a different background in race, occupation, and appearance, and various combat styles can be implemented through a dual class system in which one character can have two classes.
It also told the behind-the-scenes story of the production of six OST songs released in April. Director Nam Gu-min said, `We focused on making the background and narrative come to mind in music,' introducing the background music of 'Mana Village', the starting point of the game, and 'Musa Village Theme', which emphasized oriental colors using instruments from three countries, Korea, China, and Japan.
In addition, some of the main contents were additionally released. 'The Starlight' offers a variety of content centered on real-time battles between users, including large-scale siege, PvP battles, and 'Battle Royale' modes that maximize survival competition. In particular, the 'Battle Royale' mode is a high-level survival battle that can be participated individually or on a team basis and must survive until the end to avoid the narrowing storm, and strategic movements, class operation, and quick judgment are important, Com2uS said.
'The Starlight' has been pre-booking since the 10th, and participants will be provided with various rewards such as rare vehicles, spirits, and items that help growth, as well as opportunities to apply for real prizes such as gold bars and custom PCs. It will be released in the third quarter of this year as a PC and mobile cross-platform.
