Frostmire will introduce players to a brand new snowy locale, rife with new dungeons and lore, as well as two new Legendary Guardians to add to their rosters

SYDNEY, Oct. 8, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Guild of Guardians (GOG) today announced the upcoming launch of Frostmire, a new expansion that will bring players into a snowy environment and introduce two Legendary Guardians. Set to go live on October 16th, Frostmire is the largest GOG update since its launch, and will introduce brand new gameplay elements and narrative elements as players explore Frostmire in Adventure mode and unlock new high tier equipment that will provide key benefits during battles.

Frostmire brings a new location for GOG faithful to explore, with snow swept mountain peaks and frozen plains that are rife with new lore and further expand upon the game’s main story as players seek the remaining Places of Power. Commanders will lead their Guardians on a pilgrimage to Wellspring, a place of ancient wisdom in the frozen wastes, uncovering the tragic and heroic tales of ancestors connected to one of the new heroes joining the fight against The Dread.

“We want each GOG expansion to have a narratively compelling story that drives players to want to learn more about this world,” said Chris Clay, Guild of Guardians Game Director. “Frostmire delivers a rich new location for players to explore, challenge their skills, and conquer, with new Guardians to help anchor the story and take Commanders along for the ride.”

Guild of Guardians Creative Designer, Ella Lowgren notes, “We wanted to show a new environment that stands in contrast to the lands that have been explored before, so this time the Commander and their Guardians are making their way to Stormkeep, which rests at the top of the tallest mountain in Frostmire. We used a different colour palette for this realm than has been used before, and the music also reflects the land in a whimsical way. With new enemies and surprises to be found in Frostmire, we can’t wait for players to check it out and let us know what they think.”

The two newest additions to the GOG lineup – Lisca and Dolvir – will unlock new gameplay options as players explore the frozen dungeons of the new setting, providing unique abilities alongside their teammates. Dolvir, a Legendary warrior-style guardian known by many as “Earth’s Fury”, will allow players to add a powerful offense-based Guardian to their lineups with a distinct link to the natural world. The second new Legendary addition to the cast, Lisca, is a prolific hunter who grew up in Frostmire, bringing new ranged combat options to player’s team lineups with a witty sense of humor and love of sweet treats.

“We’re excited for players to get to add these new Guardians to their lineups and test out the new synergies they bring to the squad,” continued Clay. “Alongside our new Guardians, players will also get the chance to craft new high tier equipment, helping to stack the odds in their favor for their next big adventure.”

The expansion will introduce Level 7 equipment and gear that can be used to outfit Guardians to provide additional benefits during gameplay and strengthen players’ squads.

Frostmire will officially launch globally on October 16th and unlock the new Guardians Lisca and Dolvir for players to purchase or summon through the Altar of Sacrifice.

GOG has seen impressive growth since its launch in May, approaching 1 million downloads of the game and showing an impressive 250,000 monthly active users, outperforming other similar mobile titles. The game has also seen over $500,000 in rewards distributed through the Immutable Rewards program and continues to lead the web3 gaming industry as a key success factor for the sector.

SAO PAULO, Oct. 9, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — At 2024 LATAM Fiber Broadband Leaders Summit, Gary Lu, President of Huawei Carrier Network Marketing & Solution Sales Dept, delivered a speech titled “ACT3 to Embrace the GIGA and AI eras”. “ACT” is the revenue model of fixed broadband business. A means ARPU, C is about coverage of service, and T stands for take-up rate. Coverage multiplies Take-up rate is about user base, and ARPU is the key to increase the revenue.

Gary Lu analyzed the rapid development of carriers’ optical broadband networks and AI technologies in LATAM and across the world. He also proposed three development strategies — all-optical transition, gigabit transition, and scenario transition. “ACT” to the power of three, means the three transitions is the way to increase the user base and the revenue of FBB service, and it will also bring the quality of digital life to LATAM.

All-Optical Transition: Accelerating Cable-to-Fiber Transition to Secure Business Success of Broadband Services

Currently, the number of FTTH users in LATAM is experiencing a significant increase. Fiber broadband has replaced traditional cable broadband as the leading form of broadband. The fiber broadband service is one of fastest-growing business in LATAM and the CAGR of FTTH subscription is over 20% since 2021. Many local carriers have greatly improved O&M efficiency, and gained significant business returns by developing FTTH services. The fiber broadband market has great potential. Meanwhile, with large-scale production, the cost of FTTH equipment is being optimized. Therefore, now is a good time to invest in the construction of FTTH.

Gigabit Transition: Acceleration and Quality Improvement, Meeting Digital and AI Service Requirements

Gigabit optical broadband achieves higher network speeds, and plays a critical role in meeting digital and AI service requirements. For example, 4K/8K live streaming, VR service, and home office require sufficient bandwidth. Wi-Fi 6, Wi-Fi 7, and Huawei’s iFTTR F50 solution, can help carriers expand Wi-Fi coverage and explore business opportunities for gigabit smart home. So, the gigabit transition is also an opportunity for the future.

Industry predicts that in the next three years, the proportion of 500Mbps+ broadband users will reach 30%, while the proportion of gigabit broadband users will reach 10% in LATAM.

Scenario Transition: Providing Diversified and Scenario-Specific Services to Explore Personalized User Market

The application scenarios of optical broadband are no longer limited to traditional home entertainment. Amid the continuous growth of network speeds and Internet services, many diversified application scenarios like home office and live streaming emerge. In LATAM, the growth of the live streaming economy and rider economy intuitively showcases the business potential of optical broadband for carriers in new scenarios. Huawei is willing to explore innovative business models and provide services that better meet users’ personalized requirements with carriers.

In the AI era, its development relies on massive data, powerful computing, and high-speed networks, which happen to be the carriers’ strengths. Carriers can build home hub with media computing hosts to connect smart devices, and provide better services. Provide high-speed and stable network support for AI applications through technologies such as FTTR. Use powerful AI in the cloud with smart devices to offer personalized services. Within these, carriers can seize the opportunity of the AI era.

Huawei is developing ICT business in LATAM over 20 years, and willing to share business experience and the support technology. Huawei will be one of the best strategic partners for carriers to embrace more business opportunities in the GIGA and AI era for digital LATAM.
