China-based game developer expands horizons

by Joel on February 21st, 2008

Perfect World Co. Ltd., a leading online game developer and operator in China, has just entered into new licensing agreements with Cubinet Interactive Sdn. Bhd., an online game operator in Malaysia.

Cubinet is set to launch two new games developed by Perfect World in Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia and Singapore. The games, Legend of Martial Arts and Zhu Xian are two of Perfect World’s most popular massively multiplayer online role-playing games.

Legend of Martial Arts

Here’s an excerpt from the announcement:

These new agreements boost the number of overseas licenses for Legend of Martial Arts to eight and mark the company’s first step to license Zhu Xian to four countries within one year after its initial launch.

“Our relationship with Perfect World started with an agreement to license Perfect World II,” commented Andy Choe, chief exective officer of Cubinet. “The solid performance of Perfect World II provides a strong foundation for the future prospects of these latest licensing agreements. Cubinet is dedicated to providing high-quality game products for players in a number of regions, and I believe we have a number of similarities with Perfect World in terms of our objectives and vision. For this reason, I believe Legend of Martial Arts and Zhu Xian will deliver solid results in the Southeast Asian market.”
