LOS ANGELES--(Business Wire)--
Gamepot USA, Inc., the U.S. publishing division of Japanese gaming behemoth
Gamepot, Inc., today revealed a massive new content update for Mir II: The
Legend Continues (Mir II), its free-to-play, massively multiplayer online
role-playing game (MMORPG). The fresh assortment of content includes 16 new
diverse maps, 15 challenging never-before-seen bosses, and several new unique
items in the Cash Shop; add all of this to the game`s existing 400 monsters, 500
maps and four diverse clans, and players are in for a hefty content treat. The
update goes live in conjunction with a newly redesigned Mir II website and
forums. 

"We`re extremely proud of the loyal community Mir II inspires and we take their
feedback to heart," said Thomas Lee, senior director of marketing and business
development, Gamepot USA, Inc. "The new bevy of additions to the game and the
website promise enhanced gameplay we`re sure will thrill existing members and
newcomers alike." 

Mir II is a 2D, top-down game combining player versus player (PvP) and player
versus environment (PvE) combat. The story centers on an epic war between the
two monster tribes of the land, the Oma and the Neru, and the four groups of
heroes that defend it. Players can choose from any of these four classes -
Assassins, stealth attackers with magic attacks; Taoists, mentally disciplined
martial artists; Wizards, mages with an arsenal of spells at their disposal; and
Warriors, fighters with admirable strength and stamina - when creating their
characters. Like any classic MMORPG, players develop their character`s skills
and abilities by battling monsters, story-based quests and teaming up with
friends for dungeon adventures. This retro style of gameplay is combined with a
robust array of social features to keep Mir II at the cutting edge. 

Gamepot USA, Inc. is devoted to monthly content updates for Mir II, which gives
players an ever-expanding world to explore. Gamers can also look forward to
monthly events, both in-game and on the web, including fan art competitions,
