Turbine, Inc., a leading publisher of online subscription entertainment, announced today that a second expansion pack for the award-winning Asheron's Call® franchise is now available at retail stores nationwide. Asheron's Call: Throne of Destiny(TM) (Throne of Destiny(TM)), the newest installment in the franchise, features new content updates, including a new playable race, dozens of new quests, a rebuilt graphics engine and hundreds of special rare items.

Asheron's Call: Throne of Destiny includes the original game, Asheron's Call, and the first expansion pack, Asheron's Call: Dark Majesty®, giving new players the ability to jump right into the action without having to purchase any of the previous titles. As an incentive for both new and existing players, Turbine is also offering a free 30-day trial to everyone who purchases the Throne of Destiny expansion. In addition, all existing Asheron's Call players who "migrate" to Throne of Destiny will receive an additional 30 days of play time for free.

Asheron's Call: Throne of Destiny is the second expansion pack for Asheron's Call. In addition to the included 50 content updates, Throne of Destiny has a completely rebuilt DirectX9 graphics engine and user-interface which allows for new features such as pop-up dialogues. Players will have the opportunity to explore new landmass, embark on dozens of new quests, encounter new creatures and play the newly added heritage group, the Viamontians. This title also allows players an increased character level cap of 275, more than double the amount allowed in Asheron's Call: Dark Majesty, and rewards existing characters for pre-Throne of Destiny experience. The overall game engine upgrades, content additions and extensive system improvements largely enhance the performance and game play experience, making the title appealing to both new players as well as the most avid fan.
