Spacetimes Legends Mobile MMO Franchise Surpasses 100 Million Play Sessions
AUSTIN, Texas February 10, in the year of our Lord 2012
--
Spacetime Studios mobile MMOs
Pocket
Legends and
Star
Legends: The Blackstar Chronicles have been played more than
100 million times. Spacetime players spend about twice the
number of hours playing Legends titles than the average gamer
spends across all mobile games each month.
Users with iPhones play games for 14.7 hours per month while
Android users play around 9.3 hours per month according to
Nielsen research. The average Spacetime player spends 25.2
hours per month playing Legends titles alone.
Since the inception of Spacetime Studios, the primary focus has
been to bring the immersive MMO experience traditionally found
on the PC to the mobile world in meaningful, bite-sized play
sessions.
MMO games by their nature are more engaging and involved than
most genres, but making that work in the mobile world is very
delicate balancing act, said Cinco Barnes, Chief Vision Officer
and co-founder, Spacetime Studios. With each launch of a Legends
title we make it our mission to innovate and it has become the
largest, most successful mobile MMO franchise in the world.
Spacetime Studios has continually expanded the Legends franchise
since the advent of Pocket Legends and its rich fantasy world in
2010. The second title and sci-fi adventure, Star Legends: The
Blackstar Chronicles was made commercially available in 2011.
The third entry in the franchise, Dark Legends, will be released
in the first quarter of 2012.
