November 9, 2017 (Seoul, South Korea): Netmarble, the fastest growing mobile game company in Asia, has partnered with late night host Conan O’Brien to create digital entertainment content for the company’s upcoming MMORPG, Lineage 2: Revolution. The popular celebrity joined Netmarble onstage at TwitchCon 2017 in October to announce the game’s November 15, 2017 launch date and to help debut the company’s ‘30 vs. 30 Fortress Siege’ battle featuring top streamers from across the world. The event drew more than 1.2 million viewers on Twitch, shattering records and garnering lots of interest from gamers around the world. Conan will now partner with Netmarble in a two-part comedic video series for Lineage 2: Revolution leading up to its November 15th, 2017 launch.

Conan O’Brien, whose regular “Clueless Gamer” videos draw millions of viewers both on-air and online, will collaborate with Netmarble on the two-part series, which will appear online around the time of Lineage 2: Revolution’s mid-November launch. In the videos, Conan will be seen doing his part to usher in the next wave of mobile gaming, and another using Lineage 2: Revolution as a way to de-stress from his taxing life as a Hollywood celebrity. In addition, a bonus ‘behind-the-scenes’ video interview with Conan will go live the same day for fans to enjoy.

This follows the game’s incredible, ground-breaking success in Korea and Japan, where it launched late last year and earlier this summer respectively. The game will be released for iOS and Android devices in the Western markets on November 15, 2017.

Lineage 2: Revolution is a free-to-play mobile MMORPG (Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game) based on the popular PC online IP “Lineage.” While game retains much of its PC roots with a stunning open world, unmatched PvP raid content, castle sieges, exciting customizable characters and in-depth classes, Netmarble’s newest title is in its own new class of mobile entertainment. Lineage 2: Revolution, developed using Unreal Engine 4, is unrivalled in graphic quality and technical ability, able to pitch 30 versus 30 players real-time around the world in Fortress Sieges at launch. With quests, upgradable equipment, amazing mounts and armour to strive for, and an open persistent world to explore, Netmarble Lineage 2: Revolution is the next generation of MMORPG, and it’s available November 15th, 2017.

PARIS - Nov. 8, 2017 – Catan GmbH, Catan Studio and Asmodee Digital, a leader in digital board game entertainment, today announced that Catan Stories: The Legend of the Sea Robbers is now available on iOS and Android mobile devices. An all-new text adventure game based on the tabletop expansion Legend of the Sea Robbers for the highly-acclaimed Catan board game, Catan Stories is the first ever scenario-based Catan game. This is also Asmodee Digital’s first adventure game inspired by a board game, versus a direct adaptation of the board game.

Seventy years after the first settlers arrived on Catan, the island is enjoying peace and prosperity, but for how much longer? Developed by LUCKYHAMMERS and Asmodee Digital in close collaboration with Klaus and Benjamin Teuber, the creators of Catan, Catan Stories lets fans discover a captivating never-before-told tale, following three all-new characters on a journey through the in-game universe. Scenarist and game designer Kevin Leung has worked diligently to give new life to the Catan universe, bringing a unique mix of game mechanics and storytelling to Catan Stories.

The single-player text adventure is told through an immersive story-line supported by an atmospheric soundtrack and special visuals like 360° visions and a gorgeous map view.. Every decision in Catan Stories has a consequence, and the fate of the island is in players’ hands.



“It’s humbling to know that Catan fans continue to be so engaged with the brand after all these years. Catan Stories expands the game’s spirit of curiosity, discovery and exploration, and is an exciting new genre for players to experience and interact with the brand,” said Catan creator Klaus Teuber.

“Catan Stories is the perfect example of Asmodee Digital’s ever-growing effort to create a link between analog and digital, taking inspiration from the physical expansion for game design and content,” said Philippe Dao, Chief Marketing Officer of Asmodee Digital. “This is a particularly exciting release, as it’s the very first time that, as a publisher, we’ve followed another route than converting the board game directly to digital.”
