Age of Conan

Funcom announced they are teaming up with Xfire to give a live demonstration of the upcoming expansion for Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures. Rise of the Godslayer is the new expansion that will air on Monday, December 7 at 12pm PST/3pm EST. The live demo will be streamed on Xfire.com website.

“We have been working on the expansion for ‘Age of Conan’ for quite some time now, and everyone on the team is eager to lift the veil and include the public in what we are trying to bring to life,” says Game Director and Executive Producer Craig Morrison who will be hosting the live gameplay demonstration together with expansion Lead Designer Joel Bylos. “Development is coming together nicely, and we are really excited to see the empire of Khitai coming to life! Doing a live demo on Xfire is a brilliant way for us to reach out to a broad audience and show just what they can expect from ‘Rise of the Godslayer’ as we continue to move closer and closer to launch.”

Developers will be playing through part of the expansion. Rise of the Godslayer will have new factions, mounts and alternate advancement. The current release date for the expansion is first half of 2010.
