Asheron's Call

http://www.turbinegames.com

Developer/Publisher: Turbine Entertainment, Internet Gaming Zone

Description: If any game is big and bold enough to challenge Ultima Online in terms of gameplay and an evolving game world, it just might be Asheron's Call. I've seen only limited demos of the game up until now, but it looks to be a winner in terms of character creation options, graphics (both first-person and third-person perspectives are available), and spell system (you can mix and match spell components to create unique spells, and spells lose their power as more players learn them).

Requirements: Not specified

Status: Scheduled to go live in early '98, but some sort of beta test is bound to happen before then; check Turbine Entertainment's Web site and the Internet Gaming Zone for any information on signing up

Rates: Daily or monthly flat rate, TBA
