Late yesterday Mythic Entertainment sent out word that the final live event for its MMORPG Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning will kick off June 16th. The Rise of the Tomb Kings is the last event in the Call to Arms live expansion and sees Order and Destruction racing against each other to build huge airships that will ultimately take players to the Land of the Dead.
The winning Realm will have exclusive first access to the new Tomb Kings themed dungeon zone, and the unimaginable wealth it contains, immediately following the conclusion of the 'Rise of the Tomb Kings' live event. The more ambitious adventurers will be further recognized for their contribution, with exclusive titles: "Sky Captain" for Order, and "Master of the Air" for Destruction. The dedicated – and lucky – players might also receive the Ravening Cloak, an ultra-rare item drop only available during the live event.

"The Call to Arms continues as the armies of Order and Destruction are getting close to unlocking the secrets to the Land of the Dead," said Jeff Hickman, Executive Producer for Mythic Entertainment. "'Rise of the Tomb Kings' will see heroes on both sides of the battle competing for the glory of their Realm so they may be the first to plunder the wealth of the Tomb Kings."
The Rise of the Tomb Kings event lasts until June 22nd.

The Land of the Dead awaits...



Bryn says: I'm a fan of how Mythic is remaining consistent with its plan to roll out meaningful live events in WAR. Think it's worth taking bets to see which realm opens up access to the new dungeon first?
