Perhaps one of the most bizarre MMO shooters I have seen in my life, The Penguins War was first officially revealed at ChinaJoy 2011. Developed by Snail Game, creator of Age of Wulin, this title is said to be the company’s “testing” game dipping into the rather quiet third person shooter genre. With a booming MMO first person shooter genre in China, it is indeed a strategic move by Snail Game.
This unique MMOTPS features, well, humanoid penguins and various famous game characters, which can be seen in the trailer here (link). I have no idea if Snail Game has gotten any licensing from the original creators, but… Oh well. The Penguins War apparently is confirmed for a localized Russian server, as Mental Games signed a USD 80 million contract with Snail Game to bring their titles over (link).
