    Sohu operates two multiplayer online role playing games (MMORPG games): Knight Online and Blade Online. In addition to MMORPG games, the Company also operates a casual game platform on its portal, mainly consisting of self-developed chess and board games. In November 2006, the Company terminated the operation of Knight Online when the license contract expired. It will maintain servers for Knight Online until March 20, 2007. In December 2006, Sohu announced the launch of Blade Hero Online, which is the upgraded version of Blade Online.
