EMERYVILLE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nexon and Big Huge Games are celebrating the first anniversary of DomiNations with the introduction of the Global Age, a massive content update including the 10th historic era in the game. Based on the technologies and events of World War II, Global Age introduces exciting new troops including anti-tank Bazookas, lethal Mortars, and Paratroopers that can be precision-dropped anywhere behind enemy lines. Along with the latest Age, DomiNations continues to deliver even more historic content after release, as dynamic in-game events will unfold highlighting famous battles from World War II, including D-Day and Guadalcanal. The multiplayer mobile strategy game DomiNations has been downloaded more than 20 million times globally and is available as a free download for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch and Android devices at www.DomiNations.com.
“We’re thrilled to reach this milestone in DomiNations, and to celebrate it with the 20 million fans who have discovered the game so far,” said Tim Train, CEO Big Huge Games and Project Lead on the title. “World War II is the pivot point of modern history, and as designers we can draw on a rich legacy from that era. We’re excited to get all these new features into players’ hands as a one-year anniversary gift!”
With the addition of the Global Age, ten distinct eras from history are now playable in DomiNations, and this anniversary update is a celebration of them all, giving players new content at every Age. DomiNations introduces Supply Drops as gifts to all players for the support over the game’s first year. Newcomers as well as veterans will find air dropped packages scattered throughout their base, providing a chance to try out the new late-game content and to accelerate their progression through the Ages.
“Global Age continues to build on Big Huge Games’ ultimate vision of creating a historically-based strategy game experience that will resonate with gamers worldwide,” said Lawrence Koh, General Manager, Nexon M. “We have no doubt that this marks the first of many anniversaries for DomiNations.”
In DomiNations, players build one of eight nations, researching, exploring and gathering resources in order to complete strategic single-player and multiplayer conquests and grow their civilization. With more than 100 unique upgradeable structures, units and technologies, players must balance managing their civilization’s food and economy while training their armies to earn valuable loot in battle and defending their own wealth.
DomiNations is available as a free download on iPhone, iPad and iPod touch on the App Store and for Android devices on Google Play. In the game, players can experience all of human history from the Stone Age to the Space Age.
