Beijing Perfect World to Launch 'The War of the Red Cliff' in the Fourth Quarter of 2007

BEIJING, Aug. 17 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ -- Beijing Perfect World announces that it will launch another excellent MMORPG called "The War of the Red Cliff" in the fourth quarter of this year. Within the last few days, the anticipation of this game has drawn the attention of the vast majority of China's gamers.

Chinese history and culture is long standing and revered throughout the world. A particularly popular period of Chinese history is the end of the three kingdoms era during the Han Dynasty, where the war of the red cliff became a classic battle. Beijing Perfect World and CFGC decided to base their jointly produced film and online-game works on this popular Chinese historical period, which has great importance in Chinese history.

"The War of the Red Cliff," will differentiate from that released by their Japanese counter-parts. The game stresses historical correctness, so that its players may experience the true environment of the era, and players can play the roles of famous soldiers to better understand their roles in the battle. But in the end, what the game hopefully demonstrates is that history is ongoing and never just a thing of the past.

No matter who you intend to be, whether its the ambitious Cao cao, the fearless Dian Wei, the brave and resourceful Zhao Yun, the gallant Zhang Fei, the composed and harmonious Zhu Geliang, or the precipitant Gan Ning, "The War of the Red Cliff" promises to make you part of the three kingdoms era.
