Game Offers $1,000,000 Grand Prize

Posted on March 21, 2005

Planetwide Games says their RYL: Path of the Emperor game will be the first MMORPG to offer a $1,000,000 Grand Prize to the winner of a Player vs. Player Skill-Based Tournament. Players who purchase the pre-order RYL: Path of the Emperor video game either online or in retail stores such as EB Games and Gamestop will be qualified to participate in the tournament in which one player will win the $1,000,000 Grand Prize.

The RYL qualifying tournament will start July 1, 2005 and will end April 30, 2006, culminating in a Final Tournament event to be broadcast live and to take place in conjunction with the E3 Video Game Expo in May 2006.

RYL starts players as minimal characters (Warrior, Cleric, Mage, and Assassin) and they can gain experience points over time by killing monsters and accomplishing tasks. Characters advance to new levels when they reach a certain number of experience points. The game allows players to build fortresses, raise dragons and create flying seige gliders on their way to becoming an emporer.
