OGPlanet, an innovative provider of multiplayer online games, today announced
that the latest season of their fantasy role-playing online golf game -
Albatross18 - has launched. Season 3 of the hit game includes new community
features, characters, courses and an extensive new storyline, which delves into
the darker side of the Albatross18 game world. Players looking to jump into the

"This is easily the biggest development for Albatross18 to date,"
said Jack Liu, Chief Creative Officer of OGPlanet. "Season 3 is what we
have always envisioned our game to be. Not only from a feature-rich standpoint,
but from the dark aesthetics that veer away from the one-dimensional cutesy
feel of versions past. We've rocked the Albatross18 world just enough to call
it Revolution."
Albatross18 Season 3 introduces all new community features that make trading,
selling, and socializing even better than before. In addition to an enhanced
user interface, the new 3D virtual lobby, the PSquare, facilitates trading and
socializing, and Personal Shops allow players to create their own virtual
storefronts to sell goods at prices they determine. Players will also be able
to purchase mascots, each with its own specialty that boosts your golf game.
Season 3 also features new gameplay additions, characters and courses,
including:
- Kaz, a new character rumored to be the successor to the infamous Demon King. A master of the sword, Kaz is an enigmatic character struggling with his own internal conflict between good and evil.
- Deep Inferno, a new course covered with volcanoes, magma pits, and flowing rivers of lava. Deep Inferno provides a challenging setup to even the most experienced of Albatross18 players.
- The Spike Shot, a new special shot allowing for greater accuracy. If mastered, it gives the skilled player a definite advantage on certain holes.
