Infront Sports & Media today announced that they will be launching a “… online sports gaming platform” by the end of the year. It’ll be a MMORPG built around sports and players will be able to “… socially interact, train, compete, attend events and acquire the goods and services they need to build a parallel sporting existence.” The game is titled Empire of Sports.
Dr. Christian Müller, who is the managing director of the project, added: “This is the first-ever virtual online multi-sports world with role-playing elements. There are single sport online games but no one has seamlessly integrated multiple games around the entire sports lifestyle. The user becomes a 3D avatar, capable of developing his or her virtual body, skills and capabilities through sport and training all-the-while socialising within the Empire of Sports community. In Empire of Sports everyone can become a real sports star.”
