It must be a sign that with the registration of the 200th user at Soul Wars we are able to launch some new screen shots in the gallery of all the playable races in Soul Wars - Lite. There are 10 playable races, with 2 genders per race, and 3 different body types per gender. There are also 66 clothing kits, which provide the user with a vast amount of customisation of their alter egos ... and this is only for the lite version of the game.

We are currently finalising the emote animations for the alter egos and have narrowed it down to a list of 6 different emotes to start off with. We are also busy finalising the code to allow players to swim through water and this shuld be ready within the next few days. The last steps for Soul Wars - Lite after this are to finalise the Game UI and Game HUD and prepare the final maps that will be included in the first release.

We are currently planning on releasing 10 different maps, these will be maps of all the starting areas of the different races, and should provide a fair amount of insight into the World of Lodor.

With the amount of progress we have made so far, the release date of Soul Wars - Lite is getting very close and we expect to make an announcement as to the oficial release date by early next week. We will also then start taking pre-orders for game media discs, these will be free and more information will be released after the announcement.

I want to thank everyone for their patience with us so far, and I am hoping that the wait will be worth it for everyone. Soul Wars - Lite is the scaled down version of the game and will not include any combat or magick, but once we have had some feedback from users with regards to Soul Wars - Lite we will be able to include these features into the final release of Soul Wars much quicker.
