To the Asheron’s Call community,
Microsoft has reached an agreement by which the “Asheron’s Call” franchise will be sold back to the games’ creator, Turbine Entertainment Software. This sale includes “Asheron’s Call,” “Asheron’s Call: Dark Majesty,” and “Asheron’s Call 2: Fallen Kings.
As part of this agreement, Turbine will completely take over operations of the “Asheron’s Call” franchise.
However this transition will take several months to complete. In the interim, Microsoft Game Studios and Turbine are working together to ensure a smooth transition for the player base. We will make it a point to communicate any changes or disruptions to the player base.
What does this mean to you the subscriber? Initially, there will be no visible changes at all. Microsoft will continue to own authentication and billing for the entire franchise for the foreseeable future.
We’d like to thank you for your continued support over the years in helping make the “Asheron’s Call” franchise the success it is today.
Sincerely,
Microsoft Asheron’s Call Team</div>

Being married to a programmer is like having a cat. You talk to it but you're never really sure if it hears you, much less comprehends what you say.
