MANILA, Philippines -- Amid a flurry of disappointed fans and players of the online game Tantra, game distributor Amped announced that they will continue to support the first Tantra while preparing to launch Tantra II.
The company also announced that it is merging four game servers into two. The Manas and Kriya servers will be merged, while the Samadi and Diyana servers will become one.
The company said that support for Tantra I will include new patches, new in-game weapons and armor and future gaming events.
"Despite all of the problems, rumors, and critics that Tantra is facing. The game still manages to survive and compete in the business. This is due to the loyal players that support Tantra in its journey to success," the company said in an official statement posted on its website.
Fans of Tantra have complained about Tantra II, which was initially thought as an update to Tantra I. But it was revealed later that it was a new game.
Gamers complained they have spent large amounts of money to play Tantra I only to discover that they have to start from scratch if they intend to play Tantra II, and that their old characters will not be ported to the new game.
However, an earlier Hackenslash interview with an Amped executive indicated that the game is a new game and can be considered a separate game.
The Tantra Online games are developed by HanbitSoft.
Amped announced that Tantra II will start closed beta testing in time for the company's Amped Fest on November 21.
