Age of Conan - Hyborian Adventures Visit Report DateTime:9/27/2009 11:20:23 AM Within the massively multiplayer sector, Funcom is a pioneer in its own right, having launched Anarchy Online in mid-2001. Located in the picturesque Norwegian capital of Oslo, the company is currently busy preparing to launch Age of Conan - Hyborian Adventures, its endeavor based on the popular universe created several decades ago by renowned fantasy, action and adventure writer Robert E. Howard. We've been tracking this intriguing endeavor with mounting interest ever since it was first announced, looking forward to adventuring in the virtual lands of Aquilonia, Cimmeria and Stygia, which are based on Roman, Celtic and Egyptian themes respectively. So, when we were invited to attend a community and media event last week, we were definitely keen to go since we knew that doing so would give us the chance to speak with a number of the core developers.
