THE MATRIX ONLINE ANNOUNCES BUDDY REWARDS PROGRAM

WHAT: The Matrix Online Buddy Rewards Program
From July 19, 2007, through August 31, 2007, The Matrix Online (MxO) is offering its players the opportunity to bring up to five buddies into the Matrix with the MxO Buddy Rewards Program. Players will have the opportunity to invite their friends to "Take the Red Pill" and join The Matrix Online for up to 14 consecutive days.

Players who are opted in will receive a key that offers a trial of up to 14 consecutive days to enter The Matrix Online and become part of the continuing story of the Matrix. Trial Account Buddy Keys are only good until 11:59 PM Pacific Daylight Time on August 31, 2007, so time is limited for those who wish to join. Connect with friends right away and Jack In!

At the conclusion of the 14-day trial period if a player's friend wants to continue playing MxO, they can transition their trial account to an active subscription by entering a valid credit card or an official SOE game card onto the account. Trial keys only work for new accounts, so players need to make sure that the friends they refer do not have an existing account for The Matrix Online or an active Station Access account.

Take the Red Pill! Jack in!
