Similar to other 3D worlds like EVE Online, the Blue Mars platform will be able to support thousands of simultaneous users per region by using shared servers, capable of handling 10,000 users each. In March 2009, the firm released the SDK 〔(Avatar Reality Releases SDK For Blue Mars )〕 for its game content developers. It also added partners for the 3D party content developing program – Virtual Space Entertainment (VSE)〔(Avatar Reality Names VSE as Developer of First Blue Mars City )〕 and e Frontier,〔(e frontier Adds Home Models to Blue Mars )〕 which will create homes and 3D models. This game is the studio's first attempt to make a unique and massive world with state-of-the-art graphics, gameplay and social engagement opportunities, dedicated to bringing people together on a massive scale for entertainment and educational purposes, and allowing them to create personalized characters (avatars), in a beautiful environment. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Avatar Reality」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
