MYSTERIOUS TEMPLE OF JUPITER TO LAUNCH ON AUGUST 2ND; INCLUDES LEVEL CAP INCREASE TO 120, NEW SKILLS AND OVER 60 NEW QUESTS

Seoul, KOREA - July 28, 2011 - Joymax, a developer and publisher of interactive entertainment for the global market, today revealed that the eighth expansion for Silkroad Online, Mysterious Temple of Jupiter will go live August 2nd. The eighth update to the popular Silkroad Online series will bring both character and skill mastery level increases, as well as new quests, and many important improvements to the game's performance.

"For the latest expansion to Silkroad Online, we have listened closely to our community of players and are excited to offer new challenges and improvements", said Nam-chul Kim, CEO of Joymax. "The new level cap of 120 and the introduction of a massive range of new quests will be refreshing to new and continuing players and will keep users occupied with many new areas to explore within the universe of Silkroad Online".

Players will be able to reach level 120, an increase from the current 110 levels and learn new skills including Chinese and European arts. The expansion adds 60 new quests as part of the exploration of the mysterious temples dedicated to Jupiter, although players must be at least level 111 to enter! There's also plenty of content for low to mid-level characters, with a streamlined and improved enemy monster AI which provides a more active, tactical experience.
