    Default Star Legends: The Blackstar Chronicles Launches First on Android

    AUSTIN, Texas – August 11, 2011 – Android™ gamers will be the first to experience the new sci-fi MMO universe of Star Legends™: The Blackstar Chronicles from Spacetime Studios, the developer of Pocket Legends. The title launches with more than 80,000 players already from the beta.

    Star Legends: The Blackstar Chronicles is a sci-fi mobile MMORPG set in a far corner of our galaxy during the 41st century. In this initial Star Legends installment, human privateers travel to the UCS Blackstar, a massive colony ship, to answer the call of fame and fortune. Two factions, the space-age humans and the alien threat known as the Vular, battle one another for resources, power and inter-galactic dominance.

    Star Legends: The Blackstar Chronicles is the second title in the popular Legends franchise. The first game, fantasy themed Pocket Legends, is the world’s largest mobile MMO with approximately five million downloads.

    "When we launched Pocket Legends on Android we were blown away by the response from the community. Android has since become the leading revenue driver and our primary focus," says Cinco Barnes, Chief Vision Officer, Spacetime Studios. "It is so easy to publish apps on their Market that it became a no-brainer for us to flip the standard mobile game strategy on its head and launch on Android before any other OS."

    GAME FEATURES
    • Thrilling sci-fi, futuristic 3D world where humans and aliens battle for universal supremacy
    • Three customizable character classes with unique appearances and abilities
    • Thousands of space-age items including: weapons, armor sets, and equipment
    • Countless hours of worldwide, multiplayer, open-world gameplay
    • MMO components usually reserved for PC, including: character development and progression, grouping, guilds, friends, chat, and more
    • Playable via Wi-Fi, 3G or 4G connections on Android 2.1 and above mobile devices
    • XPERIA PLAY Optimized.

    The title is Powered by Spacetime which will allow Android, iOS and Windows users to play together globally. The technology supports game play over Wi-Fi, Edge, 3G and 4G networks.

    AVAILABILITY
    Star Legends: The Blackstar Chronicles is free to download and play. The game features optional microtransactions and virtual currency that can enhance the play experience with vanity items and costumes.

    The game is currently available for download on Android Market™ and VCAST.

    Okay Droid users, now's the time to show the love. Please don't rub it in for us poor iOS users....we're suffering enough....LOL
    I'm glad that STS has released the full version on the Android....congratulations. Maybe THAT will help Apple speed up the approval....LOL.
    Regardless, I will play SL on my iOS whenever it is finally released. No flaming Apple or anyone else...it is what it is....I'm just jealous...
    Have fun everyone...remember, Life is a highway....

    Totally agree, please no Apple hate. We'll moderate pretty heavily here. We love both platforms and are very much looking forward to getting it into iOS player's hands!

    Congrats to STS on taking what must have been a hard decision.

    As an iThingy user, I fully support you getting this game out..... You've all worked hard and have struggled for weeks with Apple to get this to all users (both Android & iOS) at the same time but there is only so long that everyone can wait.

    Hopefully Apple will see this as a message that software developers simply can't continue to delay their offerings down to Apples approval processes and often strict, unclear and non-transparent rules....

    Well Done...

    To all my friends on iOS, I am waiting for you guys. Saved a couple of alts to just be able to run and level with you. I really hope to see you all in SL soon.

    I think we iOS users deserve the wait. I should have never bought iPhone in the first place. Now I'm regretting getting it. Next phone will be an Android for sure. We are under the absolute power of Apple. We will never get it. Let's get back to PL. I only envy Android users that can play SL, that seems such a good game. Oh Well....
