Shroud of the Avatar New Free Trial Coming Up! July 3-26

[jim]

The fourth test of our Free Trial system is coming up on July 3 and runs through July 26. This will be the longest test so far of the system so that we can gather even more data about uptake, drop-off, conversions, etc. These tests are invaluable for us in order to improve the New User Experience and the Free Trial System itself.

Free Trial access allows you to play the entire game in any of the Online modes with a few key differences in game play. You will be able to explore hundreds of scenes, talk with thousands of players, adventure through the opening quests, and gain experience and skills as you get used to the world of New Britannia!

Look for the next Weekly Update and on Twitter and Facebook for details of this latest Free Trial on Friday next week.

I'll post the link to the instructions and download when they post them. The twitter and facebook links will have them soon too.
