NCSoft has announced that two longtime MMOs, Lineage II and Aion, will finally be arriving on Steam in the Western market, making it easier for gamers to migrate their games on different machines.
“Bringing Lineage II and Aion to Steam was a natural next step for both titles to further grow their prominence in the West,” stated NCSoft West’s VP of commerce Pabst, ”Both Lineage II and Aion have dedicated fan-bases, and we’re excited to work with Steam to enable even more players to experience these heritage titles.”
Launching the MMOs on Steam will broaden their visibility and give the games access to Steam’s cloud servers and auto-updates, as well as make it easier for users to purchase expansions.
Lineage is one of the oldest MMO franchises, and Lineage II has been in Western markets for the past eleven years, while Aion is best known as the hardcore MMO that allows players to fly with wings.
