Funcom’s Morten Byom on Lost Eden

Imagine yourself in the paradise of your dreams. Maybe it’s wading along the crystalline waters of the Caribbean. Maybe it’s discovering the treasures that lie beneath the sea, swimming amongst wondrous creatures that vary in shape and color. Or maybe for you, paradise is just simply hanging out at home, lounging on the couch, reading a good book and eating Belgian chocolates to your hearts’ delight.

Anyway, imagine that paradise is on the brink of destruction, as war is breaking out. Imagine that it’s the land of Rubi-Ka, where its inhabitants are faced with the decision to either fight for their land or find peace. That is the plot of Lost Eden, Anarchy Online’s latest expansion.

Interesting,eh? Our source recently had an interview with Funcom‘s Morten Byom, and he gives us more tidbits on Lost Eden.

Byom says that Lost Eden “takes all the elements from our previous expansions and adds in a huge extra helping of Sci-Fi”. Expect lots of battle stuff, including PvP battlefields, kickass weapons, and “mech vehicles that really make you say ‘ah.'”

The expansion is not expected until December 12, but there’s an exclusive download opportunity via Digital River, GameZone.com’s parent company. Pre-orders through Digital River/GameZone guarantee Anarchy Online, Notum Wars, Shadowlands, as well as Alien Invasion after users are done with the set-up, and of course, Lost Eden content once the expansion is launched.
