Ashen Empires: Dransik Classic Discontinued

Koltrane

In a press release dated March 8, Jacob Hawley, CEO of TKO Software, has announced the discontinuation of Dransik Classic, effective immediately.

Dear Dransik Classic Faithful: During the past few years Dransik Classic has engaged your senses and enriched your fun on the internet. Dransik Classic's founders, led by Jason Ely and Doug Gessler, have worked very hard with us here at TKO Software to make the Dransik Classic game available, but with great difficulty we relay the following decision. TKO Software, publishers of Dransik Classic, have decided to discontinue Dransik Classic, effective today. We came to this decision after much consideration and with great reluctance, as the Dransik Classic game is our original MMORPG. However, for the past couple of years, AsylumSoft has worked very hard to make the subscriber base grow and unfortunately, for a variety of reasons, it has not. We recognize that MMORPGs have changed over the years, and we know that there are other good games out there to play. We invite Dransik Classic users to Ashen Empires. All of us at TKO Software greatly appreciate your support and participation in the Dransik Classic community. In addition, we are grateful for the kindness and enthusiasm that has been extended to all of us by so many of you. Jason Ely joins me along with the rest of the TKO team in wishing you well in your online adventures. Jacob Hawley, CEO TKO Software, Inc.

Ashen Empires, TKO's flagship MMORPG, will continue in beta with a release currently scheduled for the first half of 2004.  For more information, visit the Ashen Empires website here.
