Uru Live: A New Light launches on the 23rd

Today GameTap announced “A New Light,” the newest episode in “Myst Online: Uru Live.” Following GameTap’s popularized episodic format, this brand new installment will pick up where last month’s “Scars” left off, immersing players in another piece of the adventuresome, puzzle-focused gameplay.

“The response to our new episodic model for ‘Myst Online: Uru Live’ has been overwhelmingly positive,” said Ricardo Sanchez, vice president of content for GameTap. “Fans of the franchise are able to plan their schedule around the latest updates, while they continue to explore all of the game’s mysteries and take advantage of the lively communities.”

In “A New Light,” power is shifting as new leaders begin to emerge, while those from the past begin to fade. Amidst the chaos, the new Age Er’Cana is released and explorers are asked to help feed the darkening lake. Meanwhile, new information is revealed and there are more who begin to fear of a coming war. Like all things Myst, mysteries abound and puzzles present themselves, so players can always expect to be challenged and rewarded.
