It's time to become a legend!

The greatest gladiatorial battle has come to Habbo – will you be a Bionicle hero or an epic fail?
The arid land of Bara Magna is a tale of harsh woe and scarce resources. The great desert and mountain range is a treacherous and chaotic world of ancient ruins and sporadic villages relying on makeshift technology and salvaging what they can.
Each village is home to a tribe of Agori whose name is based on the terrain of its home region. To avoid devastating war, the tribes settle their conflicts through single combat in the Arena Magna; one-on-one fights between powerful Glatorian warriors hired specifically for the job.
For a Glatorian, victory means honour and weapons. Defeat means dishonour and exile into the desert. Yet for the black-armoured Skrall, they take what they want when they want. Their arrogance and intimidation is a destructive threat to all.
The Agoris face their greatest threat in the last 100 millennia and need heroes to protect it.
The people of Bara Magna have hired you to be their Glatorians. Will you fight to be a hero and become a powerful legend? Or is your destiny that of darkness and exile in the Basement Lobby?
To be a Glatorian you need certain attributes: persistence, determination, mental strength and a fighting instinct. Over the coming weeks, you will be put to the test (all challenges are on the Group hub).
Welcome to the desert... I hope you survive it.

To be honest, I think this promotion clashes horribly with Habbo's key mission statement.

Compare these two:

The core of the Habbo experience is the virtual world or virtual “hotel”, Habbo Hotel. Millions of teenagers meet each other every day in Habbo’s cafés, clubs, at the pool area or in the millions of private rooms created by the Habbos themselves.

I do wonder if teen-orientated companies won't touch Habbo because it's seen as 'babyish'.
