1. Medio-januar: Vi starter nye PR-satsning med indslag på CNN (er planlagt). Dette indslag bringer vores nye trailer, interview og feature på spil. Vi har materiale klar til spin-off. Der udsendes pressemeddelse hvor udgivelsestidspunkt i marts angives. Der laves pre-order side til spillet. (Forberedelse - lave pressemeddelse, web-site & skabe trailer) 2. Primo-februar: Vi rammer ildsjæle hårdt igennem community, banner og blogs på områderne mellemøsten, læring, IT, seriøse spil og mainstream spil. Vi sender pressemeddelse om indholdseksperter vi har fået tilknyttet projektet og som har ‘blåstemplet’ det. (Forberedelse – opfølgning presse; forberedelse af kontaktliste & identifikation af relevante web-sites til næste fase) 3. Medio-marts: Vi kontakter alle tidligere pressekontakter og sender pressemeddelse ud med spillets lancering. Vi afholder en releaseparty/pr-event for presse, venner, kontakter og kunder.
