HANGZHOU, China, June 17, 2011 /PRNewswire-Asia/ --

Publisher Ngames has revealed a massive update to their Naruto/Bleach-inspired MMO, Pockie Ninja – Chapter III: Hokage Village. With Chapter III, players will be able to build and upgrade their own villages, visit and interact with friends' villages, release their own quests, and earn new titles to unlock further vital abilities.

Ngames has released details of a huge update for their popular browser-based brawler, Pockie Ninja - "Chapter III: Hokage Village"

Due to be rolled out on June 23rd, the update evolves Pockie Ninja's world to introduce a slew of brand new gameplay features, including a game-changing player village system.

Restoring Hokage Village

Pockie Ninja's recent update, Chapter II: Revenge of Aizen, introduced an extended storyline based on evil demon warrior Aizen, who was hiding at the very top of the Las Noches challenge building.

Hokage Village was devastated during the countless battles against Demon City. Now that the war has ended with the defeat of Aizen, ninjas have started rebuilding their home!

Every player of Pockie Ninja will be able to build and upgrade their own village, with each village making a vital difference to the whole ninja family.

Players can upgrade and interact with their villages in a number of ways.

Building farms will allow users to customize their home and discover fancy gifts for their characters. You can even control the weather system to manipulate your village's productivity, as well as upgrade and expand your village to become the envy of your friends.

Be sure to prepare your village well for your friends, as they will be able to visit your new home and even help you improve your surroundings. Friends can drop by to lend a helping hand, improve the look and productivity of your village, or even play some tricks on you.

Helping friends with their villages will reap a great number of rewards, making it a vital part of Pockie Ninja's ever-expanding universe.

You can even use the brand new Quest Board feature to post original bounty quests for your friends to complete. Upgrading your village level increases the number of daily quests you can post and accept.

Meanwhile, hatching eggs across the village will reap all kinds of in-game treasures. You will need to nurture the eggs before they hatch to ensure you get the best rewards, which can be aided by your Master/Apprentice – setting them the task of guarding your precious eggs will allow you more time to raise your village.

Your in-game achievements will be reflected on your village's Achievement Tower – a landmark that visually improves and grows alongside your ninja's progress. Other players will be able to see that you're a master of the martial arts just by visiting your village!
