Earthrise - Announced in January 2008, Earthrise is the Sci-fi massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) that will play out from this intriguing scenario and in this post-apocalyptic setting. In development by an independent Bulgarian-based team, Masthead Studios, which is aiming to launch the title next year, it will thrust players into a new clash involving two factions. One is the corporate government that stringently controls every possible aspect of its citizens' lives; the other is Noir, a rebel group sworn to oust the authoritarian order. Among the other features that have been revealed, a few of note are a skill-based advancement system, a player-driven economy and a seeming emphasis on PvP.
Earthrise takes place on the island of Enterra. Where the surviving mankind has build a new society: the city of Sal Vitas. Which is ruled by a totalitarian government that takes good care of those citizens who abide by its strict laws. But not everything is as perfect as it appears. By exercising full control over the cloning process, Sal Vitas' government decides who will live and who will not. Insurgent forces have accused the city's rulers of crimes against humanity. Armed factions fight for resources and power within the new system. And from the waves of discontent, a rebellion has fomented and formed a shadow government: Noir.
