A report from none other that 1UP.com has some evidence that an MMO for Biowares’ Star Wars is a strong possibility. Below is the evidence in question via 1UP.com:
“After BioWare and LucasArts made a deal last year to work together, the Internet was ablaze with speculation about a new Star Wars MMO in the works. It makes sense considering the popularity of the Knights of the Old Republicseries from BioWare and the much poorer status among fans of the non-BioWare Star Wars Galaxies. We more recently reportedthat the game was in fact a new MMO set in the KOTOR framework, a claim that was quickly denied by Electronic Arts.
Today, a tipster contacted 1UP with portions of a script for what was said to be a “Star Wars online” game. The script’s description of the game reads:
“This is a role-playing game set in the historical past of the Star Wars universe. Jedi and Sith battle across the galaxy with the power of the Force and are joined by soldiers, politicians and nobles. Players must choose the destinies of heroes and villains in a thrilling and dangerous universe.”
If this is any implication of a KOTOR based MMO this game will sell, and hopefully not turn out like the failure which was Star Wars Galaxies (Although the first release was great).
