Planet Calypso: Planet Calypso Rejuvenates Gateway for New Players

NotAdmin · Oct 2, 2012

Gothenburg, Sweden - Planet Calypso AB, developer and publisher of Planet Calypso, sci-fi MMO based in the Entropia Universe, announced today that new players now have easier access to the game. Calypso's improved Gateway gives beginning colonists a dedicated location in which to start out, get missions and learn about the gameplay and economics of the game in a safe environment.

Planet Calypso is known for its real-cash economy, sci-fi backstory, lush visuals and a very steep learning curve. Enter Calypso Gateway, the innovative starting point for newcomers. With this new update, the area now features a simpler linear layout. It also contains significantly more information about the gameplay of Planet Calypso and Entropia Universe. The "New Colonist Experience" even includes free items and skills to get new players going with weapons, ammo, armor and even a vehicle.

The Calypso Gateway is on its own island allowing players a safe place to get to know the planet and Entropia Universe. It is the first point-of-contact with the game, after the avatar creation process. Calypso Gateway features unique introductory missions to orient new players and make sure they have vital equipment. Newcomers will be able to engage in hunting, mining and crafting, using the equipment given. The tutorial-like mission structure allows players to learn about Calypso, the Real Cash Economy model and the way the basic features work.

Planet Calypso is the oldest of the planets in the Entropia Universe, with over one million registered accounts and over $400 million USD per year in user-to-user transactions. As part of the largest real economy game in the world players have the ability to participate in a science-fiction MMO where they have no monthly costs. Instead players have the ability to deposit real funds for their adventures on Calypso, or withdraw funds at any time for use in the real world. Planet Calypso is a free download available at the game's official website at http://www.planetcalypso.com.

This has been posted a few times already, think its old news by now.

I only saw the press release today. I am aware it has been announced before, though.

This press release is new and just released on Sep 28th through the company PR agency, even though something in the past may have been written or said about changes being made. The MindStar Media version of this press release was published the morning the release went to the news wires, so perhaps you may have seen it there?

I like that EP has always made the effort to find news about our universe and the developers, and have done a great job of bringing that news to us, and news we may not have known about, so I thank them for that.

You're very welcome.

As with EP, we at MSM are in the business of reporting the news as soon as possible.

Together, we should have it covered.
