Hamburg, February 29, 2012. Today, InnoGames released an update for its Sci-Fi MMO Bounty Hounds Online (BHO), which is currently in beta Status. The updated version contains, among a number of additional features and bug fixes, four new instances for players to explore. The various and challenging settings can be admired in the instances’ announcement-trailer. Players eager to check out the game prior to its official release can register and participate in the Beta on www.bountyhounds.com

The instances, designed for players with medium-high character levels significantly differ in their visual appearance. Angelina’s Guest House is a modern and mysterious hideout, accommodating a number of high-ranking officials and VIPs. The Abandoned Irrigation Canals and Emergency Exit lead players deep underground, one into wet and muddy sewers, the other into a system of natural caves, providing the only escape route for the inmates of Nightmare Prison. Smuggler’s Lair, however, is an island area full of submerged reefs and whirlpools. Dangerous smugglers and poisonous insects wait for brave adventurers in the lush vegetation of this region. All four instances are full of intriguing loot for treasure hunters, providing material to create rare objects including armor sets with added stat bonuses.

Set in a distant future, the game sends players as mercenaries to Clear Sky Planet, mankind’s retreat after a huge galactic war against extraterrestrial units, trying to keep the fragile peace between different factions. In order to enter the battlefield, players choose one of five unique mercenary classes to obtain specific skills and weapons.

InnoGames has developed major browser game titles like Tribal Wars, The West and Grepolis. With more than 75 million registered users, the German company ranks amongst the biggest developers and publishers of online games.
