Halloween is just over a week away and the Legends series has gotten spooky with the latest batch of updates from Spacetime Studios. The recent expansion to Pocket Legends has been released which takes our heroes into lava mountains to fight dragons. Dark Legends and Star Legends have also been updated with new Halloween themed quest lines, loot and monsters.
If you’re already playing Dark Legends the vampire 3D MMO released by Spacetime Studios then you will be familiar with the limits of the energy system. For those who don’t know, your energy level dictates the actions your vampire can do as he turns into the dark legend every vampire wishes to be. Many players found they were frustrated by having to wait until their energy level had built up enough for them to do something.
Never fear, Spacetime Studios has read the forums and taken note of all your cries of mild annoyance and they’ve been busy working on some changes to the energy system. Their latest update makes several changes to Dark Legends guaranteed to make the game flow a little easier with less waiting time.
Not only that, but you can now also gather your own allies and minions by completing various campaigns and quests. Read more
If you can’t get enough of the Spacetime Studios Pocket series, then the fourth in the series entitled Arcane Legends is likely to be a welcome addition to your download list. Following on from Pocket Legends, Star Legends and Dark Legends, Arcane Legends is the latest mobile MMO from SpaceStudios and is expected to be released on iOS, Android and Chrome early autumn 2012.
Arcane Legends seems to have its roots firmly in the more traditional style rpg. Choosing between a warrior, a rogue or a sorcerer you fight your way through dungeons filled with the various nasties and ne’er-do-wells, collecting loot, leveling up and so on and so forth.
Just a quick post to let you know that the waiting is finally over. Dark Legends, the vampire based MMO by Spacetime Studios is now available on iOS. So, now you can experience the intense MMO action as you fight your way through endless hordes of monsters and humans to reclaim your place and save the vampire race. Read more
It’s out! After teasing us with a trailer showing a cleavage-beholden lady of the night (No, not that kind of lady of the night) Spacetime Studios have released their new vampire based MMO, Dark legends.
The game focuses around you, a newly sired vampire fighting to survive in the brutal human world. Unlike the teen-vampire films made popular in recent years, the humans don’t want to romance the vampires, in fact most humans would rather just shove a rather pointed stick through them.
Dark Legends has been launched on both desktop and mobile by way of the Chrome web store and Google play. Android users have exclusive access to the mobile platform for a couple of weeks, so if you’re an iPad or iPod user, hang on you’ll get to play soon. Read more
The teaser trailer for the new Spacetime Studios MMO Dark Legends has been released. The trailer is just under 40 seconds long, and gives you a feel for the atmosphere of the game. There’s no gameplay footage as of yet, but with the release date looking to be in the first quarter of 2012 it’s likely we will see one soon.
“In Dark Legends Players will embrace the secret societies of vampires to challenge the hordes of undead, werewolves, demons and humans that hunt them. Dark Legends opens with the player recently raised and under the direction of the vampire that sired them. The secret existence of vampires has been exposed and angry, misguided humans are uniting to exterminate the undead plague by any means necessary. Players must work with their clan to survive this brutal new world.
Dark Legends will be available for iOS, Android and Chrome. Keep an eye on their official website for more information.
I’ve caught wind of a new game in development by Spacetime Studios. Their latest MMO for handheld devices is called Dark Legends and sees you as a newly sired vampire having to defend itself from the humans wishing you and all other vampires dead.
Information on Dark Legends is a little thin on the ground, but judging by two of their previous titles, Pocket Legends and Star Legends you can expect to see the same high standard portable roleplaying, and addictive gameplay.
Please visit their site at www.darklegends.com and follow them on Twitter and Facebook. Their press-release below has more information.
Spacetime Studios takes its mobile and desktop Legends franchise into a frightening new world with Dark Legends. Players will embrace the secret societies of vampires to challenge the hordes of undead, werewolves, demons and humans that hunt them. The title will be released for Android, iOS and Chrome in the first quarter of 2012.
Fans of the popular Legends franchise, Pocket Legends and Star Legends, will discover a gameplay evolution in Dark Legends that draws them even deeper into the experience. The combat system delivers fast paced, action oriented gameplay that includes new mechanics such as charge attacks and the ability to drain enemies. A wide breadth of solo and multiplayer content will also be available.
The most significant change is a much deeper focus on narrative. In addition to story communicated during the 3D multiplayer missions, players will periodically be given the option to complete quick action missions with a single tap. These missions use brief cut scenes to create an interactive storybook, where players experience the life of a vampire up-close and personal.
The company’s goal for Dark Legends is to combine casual, strategic advancement content with their award winning real-time 3D multiplayer system to create a blend of gameplay never before seen.
With each entry to the Legends franchise we raise the bar for the pick-up-and-play MMO space, said Gary Gattis, CEO, Spacetime Studios. The changes between Pocket Legends and Star Legends were significant, but Dark Legends is a quantum leap forward in interactive storytelling. Live the dark fantasy and play anywhere, anytime, anyone!
Dark Legends opens with the player recently raised and under the direction of the vampire that sired them.

The previous Legends titles, fantasy Pocket Legends and sci-fi Star Legends: The Blackstar Chronicles have been downloaded more than seven million times, making it the world’s largest mobile MMO franchise.
Dark Legends with be shown for the first time publicly at GDC 2012.
