Nexon USA announced yesterday the North American retail launch of Shattered Galaxy, featuring a "Massive Online Warfare" persistent universe for the PC. Shattered Galaxy, published in North America by Nexon USA and distributed by Tri Synergy Inc., has previously won acclaim from industry peers by claiming 4 out 6 Independent Games Festival awards at the 2001 Games Developers Conference.

Shattered Galaxy allows over 100,000 gamers to play simultaneously. Real-time strategy battles allow over 30 players to compete for long-term rewards. Players build and manage up to 50 combat units equipped with over 1,000 high-tech military components.

"Shattered Galaxy invigorates both real-time strategy and massively multiplayer game play," states Kevin Saunders, Project Director and Producer of Shattered Galaxy. "The scope of the game is astounding: more units, more facets, and more players simultaneously combating than ever before experienced in either genre."

Set in a distant star system light years from Earth, Shattered Galaxy introduces players to the tragic remnants of the human race after a government experiment had gone catastrophically awry. Battling constant threats of alien and human attacks, players assume the role of military tacticians, securing dominance, wealth, prestige and political power through the shrewd manipulation of their cybernetic armies.
