El Segundo, Calif.-October 5, 2007- 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.

"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.
