Phat L337 pre-order campaign for Anarchy Online Alien Invasion
Durham, USA - July 1, 2004 Funcom introduces Athleet, Shaoleet, Leetzilla, Cheerleet, Masculeet and five other virtual Leet pets with the upcoming Anarchy Online - Alien Invasion. Exclusively available to those who pre-order the retail box from a select online retailer prior to 1 September, 2004, the new pets are meant to be a fun and social addition to the considerable feature set in Anarchy Online.
The strange little Leets have always had a cult status among the Anarchy Online fans, but it’s not until now that players can possess their own crew of Leets. The small critters will loyally follow their owners and are available to all professions. The Leets serve as more than eye-candy though, as each of the 10 pets comes with unique personality and looks. For extra measure Funcom has also included the possibility to pit the Leets against each other in pet fights.
"With this unique pre-order feature we seek to give earlybirds something special" said Nicolay Nickelsen, Funcom’s VP of Sales and Marketing. "We know how popular the Leets are among our fans, and this funny addition will hopefully stimulate new and current players to pre-order Anarchy Online – Alien Invasion."
Without further ado Funcom proudly presents the pet Leets:
Athleet - The sports dude Leet
Leetzilla - Godzilla meets Leet
Masculeet - The manliest Leet on Rubi-Ka
Cheerleet - Your own loyal cheerleader Leet
Deleet – The lethal assassin Leet
Shaoleet - Watch out, he knows Leet-foo!
Invaleet – Talk about a bad hair day
Bulleet - His old neighborhood makes the Brink look like paradise!
Violeet – The maniac Leet
Calculeet - The local office geek Leet
All the Leets can be claimed through in-game Leets-R-Us shops after the launch of Anarchy Online – Alien Invasion on the 1st of September.
