Computer and video game publisher GodGames, a subsidiary of Take-Two Interactive Software, Inc., along with developer MumboJumbo today announced that GameSpy Industries, the leading provider of consumer online entertainment and technologies to the games industry, will provide multiplayer support for "Myth III: The Wolf Age." The game is the third installment of the critically-acclaimed Myth franchise, and is set for release on Mac and PC in November 2001.

"GameSpy's technology allows us to focus on 'Myth III''s modern graphics engine and gameplay," said Mike Donges, Executive Producer at MumboJumbo. "GameSpy has everything that we need to expand multiplayer gaming beyond what was achievable in the previous Myth titles."

"Myth III: The Wolf Age" is a prequel to Bungie's original Myth games. Set 10 centuries prior to "Myth: The Fallen Lords," the game focuses on the exploits of the legendary hero Connacht, who saved mankind from the vile Myrkidia and Trow races. The game sets new standards for 3D real-time strategy games through the use of true 3D characters, procedural foliage, deformable terrain, innovative network games, a powerful roster of units and an engrossing story.

When "Myth III: The Wolf Age" ships, gamers may utilize GameSpy to play online right out of the box, battling against friends on specialized netplay maps. The online portion of the game includes multiplayer modes like Capture the Flag, Territories, Steal the Bacon, and Assault. In addition, gamers may team up with friends to play the single-player game cooperatively.
