Thursday, June 11th, 2009

Here’s a copy of the press release sent to the gaming press in regards to Noble Set VI’s launch.

DUELS.COM® GETS ENCHANTED WITH RELEASE OF NOBLE SET VI

Expansion Set Brings Unique Item Count to More than 5000!

June 11, 2009 (AUSTIN, TX) –  For the half a million Duelists battling it out on Duels.com, the online player vs. player (PVP) game developed by Austin game studio Challenge Online Games, Inc. (Challenge Games®), their favorite game just got a touch of magic. Enchantment is just one of the new features to be unveiled in Duels’ latest expansion Noble Set VI upon its release today, June 11, 2009.

With the introduction of enchanting, players will be able to obtain enchantment components by salvaging them from existing weapons and applying those components to enhance new weapons. As with each Noble Set release, new lore will provide more depth to the Duels universe. In Noble Set VI players will gain insight into the Amarian Warrior women, the druidic Fey Hunters and the mysterious Chrono-Watch. Any good Duelist knows his build can only be as good as the items he collects and Noble Set VI introduces more than 250 new Rare, Epic, Legendary and Artifact weapons, as well as new jewelry and trinkets, bringing the total number of unique items in the game to more than 5,000.

With half a million players worldwide, Duels is an online strategy game where players build powerful characters based on physical attributes, battle experience, special abilities and collectible items. Unlike many online strategy games which require hours of grinding play to achieve player power and status, Duels is designed to provide compelling in-depth PVP, head-to-head game play in 10 to 30 minute increments, attracting both hardcore and casual gamers for quick-fix gaming.

Register to play Duels today and receive free items packs at www.duels.com.
