Darkfall Developer Tasos announced today that the team has launched the Darkfall Community Publishing Program, which is a way for subscribers to make some extra money by referring new players to purchase the MMO. According to the post, active players will be able to make 20% on all Darkfall client products by sharing a unique link on their sites and blogs.

"The best Community Publishers will earn more than the standard share and be invited to cooperate with the Aventurine Publishing Team. Some may even be offered further opportunities in the gaming industry," Tasos said. So if you're a Darkfall player who wants to participate in this program, head over to the Community Publishing tab in the account management system. You can read the full announcement after the jump.

Imagine earning a publishing-size cut every time someone follows your link to buy Darkfall. That’s what the Darkfall Community Publishing Program is all about.

We started this new and exciting program to reward our player-base for doing such a great job at promoting our game. After all, who knows Darkfall better than its players? We also wanted to offer a great fund-raising medium to Darkfall oriented clans, Darkfall fan sites and other relevant blogs and websites.

Since Darkfall launched we have received hundreds of requests and inquires about offering an affiliate program. The Darkfall Community Publishing Program however is much more than an affiliate program. It’s not open to everyone, only Darkfall players with an active subscription can participate. There is a substantial payout on all Darkfall client sales. The best Community Publishers will earn more than the standard share and be invited to cooperate with the Aventurine Publishing Team. Some may even be offered further opportunities in the gaming industry.
