Petroglyph Takes Strategy Online With Mytheon

12:00AM Mike Fahey | Real-time strategy developer Petroglyph and True Games have just announced Mytheon, which promises to combine the best elements of action, strategy, and RPG gameplay into one massive online game. Mytheon is an online game that lets players explore a fantasy universe based on real-world mythology, beginning with ancient Greece and expanding into other mythologies via planned expansions. The game will feature real-time combat, extensive PVP, and a collectible element in the form of Power Stones, which players can gather and customise to cast spells or summon minions. The game will be free to play, supported by micro-transactions. And that’s really as much as we know so far. The release goes on and on about how they are creating an entirely new genre, so I suppose being vague can’t be helped. It’s like trying to describe a flavour no one has tasted before. Hit the jump for the official release.
