Vanguard: Saga of Heroes Going Free-to-Play on August 14th

I never gave Vanguard: Saga of Heroes much of a chance when it launched back in 2007 with a monthly subscription fee, but between the return of Brad McQuaid and the fact that the game is going free-to-play next week, I just might be treading back into fantasy MMO territory. Word is:

Greetings Telonians!

The Vanguard Saga of Heroes transition to free-to-play is just around the corner! We are pleased to announce that the official launch date is Tuesday, August 14, 2012! Mark the date on your calendar!

Over the past couple of months, we have been working hard to improve the game in order to prepare for the influx of new and returning players. If you have not heard about all the changes, check them out for yourself in game and out of game! In the coming week, you’ll start to notice even more changes as we move toward the official free-to-play launch.

Some of the more notable changes include:

‘¢ New Website: Our official website has received a major facelift and has a new URL – http://www.vanguardthegame.com/.

‘¢ Vanguard Marketplace: The Vanguard Marketplace offers several categories to browse – Services, Mounts and Pets, Appearance and Equipment, and Housing.

‘¢ Starting Areas Revamp: New characters will now start one of the following starting areas: Cliffs of Ghelgad, Tanvu, Three Rivers Village, Tursh Village, or the Isle of Dawn.

‘¢ Removed Class Restrictions: We removed the class restrictions for all races. You can now create that special combination of character that you dreamed about making!
