NCSoft License Unreal 4 For Two New MMOs


ncsoft

No rest for NCSoft. Coming on the heels of Guild Wars 2’s success, and with the recent release of Blade & Soul over in Korea, and the upcoming releases of Wildstar and Lineage Eternal, you might fall under the pretense that the Korean publisher is up to their necks with work. You would be wrong, as NCSoft has inked a partnership with Epic Games to develop two new MMOs under the Unreal 4 Engine.

There are no confirmed titles in the works, and the two games are separate from NCSoft’s existing library. Rumors suggest that one or both may be either the long-delayed and thought to be cancelled Lineage III, and possibly Aion 2. Aion had recently stated a committal to existing IP.

Regardless, we won’t be seeing anything from these games for a long time. According to an NCSoft rep, not until after Lineage Eternal.
