Koei has today announced that Romance of the Three Kingdoms XI is to be released across Europe for PC this September. RTK XI is the latest instalment in the award-winning strategy series, but is the first to be released for PC in Europe."
Direct2Drive has kicked off its third week of Spring Sale discounts, offering 30%-75% off on over 20 titles and bundles including 40% off Star Trek Online, 50% off Battlefield 2 Complete Collection and Dawn of War II, 67% off of the X-Com Complete Bundle and 75% off of the Civilization IV Complete Edition.
This is a game with a long heritage. Based on the 14th-century historical novel of the same name, this is the eleventh game in the series. Eleventh!

Three Kingdoms The Battle Begins: MMORPG has Launched. This is a free to play MMO that had some limited beta testing in an Open Beta last week. It is offered by online game publisher Uforia.
The launch saw some server downtime and some concern over antivirus software improperly identifying elements in the download as a virus. Themida is actually an anti-hacking device. The item mall has also been open with new items being added.
