EA/BioWare MMO Due In 2010??? News
More on this gameBioWare is apparently not involved, while LucasArts' MMO will run alongside the Star Wars TV series...
Rumour has it that a new Star Wars MMO is in development at LucasArts, and is scheduled to launch alongside the live-action Star Wars TV series towards the end of 2009. The MMO's plot will supposedly follow the same storylines as the TV series.
The rumours also suggest that this MMO will not be developed by BioWare or Sony Online Entertainment.
BioWare does currently have an untitled MMO in development, as well as an apparently unrelated project with LucasArts (details of which are sparse to say the least).
Previous rumours have suggested that the untitled BioWare MMO might be a Star Wars game, or even based on the Knights of the Old Republic universe.
If there is any substance behind the latest rumours, then this sheds significant doubt on BioWare's involvment in any type of MMO Star Wars game. BioWare's MMO may not be related to LucasArts' whatsoever, while the Canadian developer's LucasArts project may not even be an MMO.
Few specific details have been released about the first live-action Star Wars TV series since its announcement in 2005. However, it will set between the end of the new trilogy, and the start of the old trilogy featuring characters from the expanded Star Wars universe.
This rumoured Star Wars MMO game by LucasArts will supposedly be released on PC and consoles. It was also pointing out that LucasArts has another MMO in development that is not based on the Star Wars universe.

This pc game is not Kotor 3 thats coming out lucasarts even said its not. Its more like a sequel to the 3 game whenever it comes out the story takes place 300 years after Kotor 2 Revan the Exile and whoever went with the Exile never returned from the outer rims most likely they lived out there entire lives preventing the true sith from coming to there galaxy.Now this ture sith that there were stoping have finale come thats the story for this mmo i'm not happy because i hate mmo's but it seems to be a great story. P.S Hk-47 is in the game so i quess we will find out what happens in Kotor 3 from him whenever the game comes out

Tired of all these games that are only MMO... Quit making just MMO games everyone hates them that really care about games. Make it a single player RPG like it already is and make it also possible for MMO so people don't have to have the internet to play and not only that which will prolly be the case have to pay a monthly fee to play as well. Like all the other MMO games out there that use to only be single player RPG with multiplayer options!! Quit making MMO games.

This MMO stuff is the stupidest thing I have ever heard. It just doesn't work especially for names. Sure there alright at first but then it turns into stuff like jedi12345
