"Because of the very positive and successful collaboration in publishing, producing and game design for Aion, we have agreed upon an intensified cooperation for our new MMORPG project with Frogster already in this early stage. We can't really reveal much about our new online role-playing world now, but it will surpass current game worlds in many aspects", commented John and Tony Tang of Runewaker Entertainment on the signing of the contract.
