Infogrames picks up Horizons

Infogrames has announced that it has acquired the publishing rights to Horizons, Artifact Entertainment's upcoming online role-playing game. It will be published and released this fall under Infogrames' Atari label. Horizons sets itself apart from other online role-playing games by having players focus on crafting and adventuring skills. Dead enemies will not drop ready-to-use weapons or armor, so skilled craftsmen players will play a vital role in the game. When creating their character, players can choose from races such as humans, elves, dwarves, and even dragons. Those who choose the dragon class will even be able to fly as they reach higher levels.
