Fresh off the launch of its first massively multiplayer online game, Might and Magic Heroes Kingdoms, Ubisoft steers its online gaming initiative in a decidedly lighter direction with Petz World.

Developed by Frima Studios, the company behind EAâs Littlest Pet Shop Online, the free-to-play Petz World will allow kids and tweens to bring their animal love online in a safe and healthy way. Theyâll adopt unique pets and travel to exotic locations, meeting new animals and sometimes saving them fromâŚanti-animal stuff. The press release isnât clear on what the animals need saving from. Themselves? That sounds good. Weâll go with that.
âUbisoft is excited to be propelling its popular Petz brand into the MMO space. This game is a unique way for children and parents to play games together,â said Chris Early, vice president of digital publishing at Ubisoft. âPetz World allows players to share their progress and adventures, helping each other to receive more coins, achievements and unlockables.â
Petz World is due out in 2011.
