from the DotA dept.

Aeria Games has introduced a new map for Realm of the Titans, the DotA-inspired game built on BigWorld Technology.

As game activity is hinged on map design, in classic DotA tradition, here are some of the map’s features..

· New Win Objective –Destroy the enemy base OR be the first team to achieve 66 enemy kills for match victory in Titan’s Eye!
· Play More, Win More – The map also features increased global gold gain, decreased death timers, and reduced cooldowns for all heroes.
· Plant Power Up — You’ll encounter a strange new plant as you battle across Titan’s Eye. Be warned — this is no ordinary vegetation. Any character near the plant becomes invisible to enemies!
· Rune System — The Rune system randomly spawns a useful buff in different locations on Titan’s Eye. Scoop up double physical damage, double magic damage, haste, increased regeneration, flat experience and more as you push toward your objective.


New Realm of the Titans class unveiled: HaZ’zard (ranged fire elemental)

from the titanic dept.

The team at Aeria Games has unveiled a new class for their upcoming title Realm of the Titans (RoT).

RoT is a BigWorld-powered game, inspired by Defense of the Ancients, one of the most popular indie mods ever created for a game (Warcraft III).

The game is currently in closed beta.

HaZ’zard packs a heavy punch for a floating torso of fire. Borne from an ancient lava pool and enchanted with form-capturing spells, HaZ’zard’s favorite pastimes now include hurling rings of fire and spawning waves of fast-moving flames. His soul burns for vengeance (well, mostly it just burns). Use HaZ’zard as a strong ranged hero on the battlefield in Realm of the Titans, where team strategy is key to capturing your enemy’s base first.

HaZ’zard’s skills are each linked to a keyboard shortcut, shown in parentheses:

Lava Spout — (Q) Places a Lava Spout on the ground. After a short time lava shoots up, stunning and slowing enemies.

Emperor’s Power — (W) Stuns and damages enemies facing away from you at a range of 1050.

Ring of Fire — (E) Summons a shield to protect you. When destroyed, the shield spews fire damaging nearby enemies.

Thousand Flames — (R) Releases a spreading wave of fire from your location.

from the sanctuary dept.

Lukchin over at Haven4Gamerz.com shared a short interview with Travis form Aeria Games, the western publisher of BigWorld-powered Realm of the Titans.

  1. What is your main goal for Realm of the Titans on release? Our main goal for Realm of the Titans is to build a strong community that plays our great game. With games like ROTT, a strong and dedicated community can determine whether or not they are successful. We already have a great start with very dedicated players from our Alpha Test that are eagerly waiting for the Beta launch of the game!
  2. What does ROTT offer to entice fans of the genre that are playing games like League of Legends? Realm of the Titans has a lot to offer players that other games do not. ROTT has two different 5v5 maps, our Titan Skill system that allows players to change skills throughout the match, dynamic control points on the map, new heroes with unique abilities, in-depth stats, daily leader board updates, and a lot more.
  3. What boundaries are you trying to push with ROTT? The MOBA genre is still relatively new and there are many directions that it can go in. We are hoping to push boundaries by experimenting with new gameplay mechanics, new types of game modes, and new hero abilities.

Realm of the Titans is an online free-to-play Strategy/Role-Playing game inspired by Defense of the Ancients. It’s currently in Alpha.RT_ss007

from the abrasion dept.

BigWorld-powered Realm of the Titans has added another hero to its pantheon. Abraxas is a tough lookin’ mug with some stopping power.

Abraxas is a beefy support hero and pillar of strength for any team. His massive spiked tail and four muscular arms intimidate enemies as well as execute mighty offensive maneuvers with ease. If you’re unfortunate enough to battle against Abraxas, steer clear of the path of his deadly spear!

Abraxas’ skills are each linked to a keyboard shortcut, shown in parentheses:

• Mighty Throw — (Q) Causes damage and stuns enemies in a path.
• Bolster — (W) Increases Physical Damage based on your total Health, up to 100%.
• Battle Cry — (E) Increases nearby heroes’ Movement and Attack speeds for 8 seconds.
• Majesty — (R) Gains vision, causes damage, and lowers Defense and Magic Resist of an enemy. Increase an ally’s Defense and Magic Resist and restores their Health.

New Realm of the Titans Class Unveiled: Gadgetmeister

from the explosive mischief dept.

The team over at Aeria Games has brought to bear the newest player class in the DotA-style Realm of the Titans.

Gadgetmeister is a technologically-oriented class focused strongly on melee. The character design itself is reminiscent of some classic fantasy, featuring the full medieval miner accoutrement of bobbing gas headlamp, and a barrel full of to mischievous tools. It seems that the majority of his attacks somehow involve incendiaries and exlplosives, which sort of makes him our favorite class thus far ;)

Gadgetmeister’s bag of tricks includes these mischievous skills:

• Reflection — Spawns clone of enemy. Killing the clone damages the host. Lasts 18 seconds.
• Force Field – Creates a force field at the target location. Units within the field are unable to leave and units outside the field are unable to enter.
• Blinding Light – Fires a laser at the target. Causes damage and reduces the target’s accuracy.
Time Bomb – Toss a time bomb at an enemy. The bomb can pass between enemies and allies if they get close to the person with the bomb on them. After a short duration, the bomb will explode and do damage to the player

Realm of the Titans is one of the newest BigWorld-powered games to be developed and published in the Western market. It’s inspired by Defense of the Ancients, probably the most popular game mod of all time (Warcraft).

from the thunderclap human dept.

A new player class in BigWorld-powered, DotA-inspired Realm of the Titans has been unveiled. Nevetira is a wrangler of elements, utilizing weather systems to lay waste to her foes. The backstory is that she was raised in a mountain village, constantly tormented by bad weather. Most of the time that kind of environment breeds good weathermen, but she seems to have stepped it up, having learned how to actually manifest thunder balls, winds, thunder and so forth.

Some would say she’s “electrifying”… ahem.

• Thunder Ball — Cause damage and stun for 0.1 second. Light target’s surroundings within a range of 1400 for 3 seconds. Thunder ball has 1800 Movement Speed.
• Howling Wind — Force enemies within range to turn around. Prolong their turning duration for 3 seconds.
• Wind Blessing — Restore ally unit’s Mana for 20 seconds
• Thunder Clap — (Ultimate) Throw some thunder balls, which collect energy in the air and target nearby enemies. Each ball causes 120 damage to targets it hits directly, 80 Area Effect, and 0.1 second of stun.

Realm of the Titans is one of the newest BigWorld-powered games to be developed and published in the Western market. It’s inspired by Defense of the Ancients, probably the most popular game mod of all time (Warcraft).
