LucasArts & BioWare Announce New Project
BioWare and LucasArts today announced (by way of the newly formed LucasArtsBioware.com) that they will be collaborating on an “interactive entertainment product.” Details for the project will be revealed at a later date. Both companies plan to co-develop the game, and expect that with their combined expertise they’ll make one hell of a product.
According to Jim Ward, president of LucasArts:
“LucasArts has a deep commitment to developing compelling stories and characters for the unique medium of interactive entertainment, and we have been searching for a developer that shares this value. We found this in BioWare. Through our previous collaborations, we know that BioWare has an impressive ability to blend gripping stories with technological advancements, and we believe that our upcoming product will deliver an experience that will span the traditional boundaries of video game entertainment.”
Could this possibly be the long-awaited KOTOR MMO we revealed last week?
Let’s just say we can only surmise our piece was the reason this announcement came when it did.
