Swords and Soldiers Fights its Way to PSN

SONY ONLINE ENTERTAINMENT AND RONIMO COLLABORATE

TO UNLEASH THE ARMIES OF SWORDS & SOLDIERS ON THE

PLAYSTATION®NETWORK

SAN DIEGO, Calif. July 15, 2010 – Today, Sony Online Entertainment LLC (SOE) and

independent videogame developer Ronimo Games announced a collaborative effort to bring

Swords & Soldiers, a side-scrolling, real-time strategy game, to the PlayStation®Network.

Swords & Soldiers is an innovative strategy game featuring lush graphics, smooth controls,

strong online integration and fresh gameplay. Commanding the armies of the burly Vikings, the

vicious Aztecs or the cunning Chinese, players create powerful units, cast devastating spells

and travel the globe in search of the ultimate trophy.

“Swords & Soldiers is the perfect blend of real-time strategy and bold 2D graphics and will

include innovative features,” said Micah Loucks, Senior Producer at SOE. “Collaborating with

Ronimo Games is a great opportunity for SOE to continue to bring interesting and unique titles

to the PlayStation Network.”

In Swords & Soldiers, players can acquire resources, assemble armies, thwart enemies and

dominate opponents, while earning up to 20 PlayStation Network trophies. As players advance,

new modes and minigames will be unlocked. Gameplay is available in single and local and

online multiplayer modes. To play online, players can enter Matchmaking Mode at any time.

Once a suitable opponent is found, the current gameplay will be paused until the battle is

completed. With Matchmaking Mode, there is no waiting to battle and no break in the strategy

action.

“PlayStation Network is an ideal platform to bring fresh gameplay experiences to a broad

audience,” said Fabian Akker, Co-Founder and Game Designer at Ronimo. “And SOE has been

a great to work with in terms of getting the game on PSN.”

Swords and Soldiers is scheduled to launch on the PlayStation Network early this Fall. For more
