Mythic confirms that a new attempt at bringing Games Workshop's iconic table-top franchise to the MMO market is in development...
Following the cancellation of the original Warhammer Online title from Climax and SEGA back in 2004, a new MMO based on Game Workshop's classic table-top series is in the works at Dark Age of Camelot developers Mythic Entertainment.
A next-gen MMO title, Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning (or WAR for short) is set to feature Realm versus Realm (RvR) combat, which according to Mythic, will bring Player versus Player (PvP) and Player versus Environment (PvE) together for a seamless experience. WAR has also been confirmed as being subscription based though and exact figure is yet to be decided upon.
"WAR is coming!" proclaimed Mark Jacobs, President and CEO at Mythic Entertainment. "We're well into our first year of intensive design and development on the game that we believe will usher in the next generation of truly great MMO's. With our expertise in RvR and a rich fantasy setting that is in a perpetual state of conflict, WAR promises to be a game unlike any other."
"The core concept behind WAR is simple - war is everywhere," explains Lance Robertson, Producer of Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning. "This world, dominated by force of arms and magic, provides a wonderfully rich setting for an MMO. Our game will give player entrance into this world to experience the epic nature of war and the glory of battle. Every aspect of the game, including PvE content, is geared towards the greater war in some important way."
Set for release during 2007, we'll have more on Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning shortly...
