After taking a break in 2005 without releasing any more add-ons for their sci-fi MMORPG, Funcom is now back on track, announcing that the fourth expansion - Lost Eden - has gone live this week. Following the original Anarchy Online from 2001, The Notum Wars in 2002, Shadowlands in 2003 and Alien Invasion in 2004, Lost Eden brings "an awesome range of new features for all level ranges, offering countless more hours of action and fun for all Rubi-Ka citizens".
The new expansion is only available for purchase online, and costs $29.95 / 29.95 Euro. Pretty spicy, but only until you learn that the package also includes all the previous content - meaning the original version of Anarchy Online and all three previous expansions listed above.
Here are the main features included in Anarchy Online: Lost Eden:
- Fight the epic battle for control of Rubi-ka in space! All-new orbital battle stations take player-versus-player combat between Clan and Omni players to new heights.
- Enter the heart of the organic alien motherships! Unleash your powers inside the terrifying alien invasion fleet while exploring mysterious and challenging in-door environments.
- Go to war with missile launchers, gun turrets and call upon devastating air strikes! It's time to fight for Notum tower control in a whole new way.
- Make the war count! Add your experience points to planet-wide research and gain terrible weapons of war such as orbit-to-ground laser cannon attacks and upgraded battle-mechs.
- Master and use devastating new battle-mechs! Unleash their potential for death on massive player-versus-player battlefields, in space and on the ground.
- Conquer a whole new range of weapons and armor as you battle across Rubi-ka in its darkest hour! 'Lost Eden' brings you on a journey ever closer to Armageddon. Word is that existing Anarchy Online players can purchase the expansion through Funcom's account pages, while new customers can order it from the Funcom shop.
