The project aims to rebuild the core appeal of AVA and return players to the original experience of FPS, targeting those who find modern shooters too heavy to play comfortably and veterans who once devoted themselves to the game. Service is scheduled to begin within 2026, with final adjustments currently underway for launch. The official title, logo, and teaser movie will be unveiled on August 12 via a teaser site. The project is described as inheriting AVA's high competitiveness and tactical gameplay, backed by 18 years of track record. It is designed to run smoothly even on older PCs without requiring a high-end environment. AVA began official service in Japan on December 1, 2008, and is set during a fictional European war with three classes: Pointman, Rifleman, and Sniper. The game once claimed 70,000 matches occurring daily and 2.8 million cumulative players, and was known as the most played FPS in Japanese internet cafes.","whyItMatters":"The announcement frames the project as a return to AVA's original experience, a direct response to the perceived heaviness of modern FPS titles that the sources say require high-spec PCs.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eG.O.P is the publisher behind the free-to-play portal sites Pmang and GAMEcom, and operates more than 20 games in Japan across PC and smartphones.\u003c/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThe company president and CEO is Shin Jae-myung, with headquarters in Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo.\u003c/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThe project is described in the press release as pursuing \u0026#34;the true fun of FPS where anyone can compete casually yet seriously.\u0026#34;\u003c/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThe release frames the project around three features: inheriting \u0026#34;AVA-ness,\u0026#34; comfortable performance on older PCs, and building a \u0026#34;supreme battlefield\u0026#34; where former comrades can gather again.\u003c/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAVA\u0026#39;s two factions are the EU (European Union) and NRF (Neo Russian Federation), with battles held in rooms of up to 32 players.\u003c/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThe game\u0026#39;s gun damage decreases with distance, and since classes other than Sniper wear helmets, headshots do not always kill instantly.\u003c/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eGame rules include Annihilation, a team deathmatch mode, and Demolition, a round-based bomb planting mode.\u003c/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAVA\u0026#39;s official service in Japan began in 2008, though one source in the cluster lists the start year as 2010.\u003c/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThe copyright notice on the project materials reads \u0026#34;© NEOWIZ All rights reserved. © VALOFE Co., Ltd. \u0026amp; G.O.P Co., Ltd.
