Exclamation Worlds/Galaxy of Starcraft!

Yup, it's finally been hinted that Blizzard have realised that Warhammer is going to hand them their MMORPG market share spine when its released in mid-late 2008, and have made ready their "Plan B" to rake in the bizillions in subscription dollars.

Thus, Worlds/Galaxy of Starcraft MMORPG is born!

Proof after the jump...

Or perhaps it's not Starcraft at all!

Tiberium!

Reading that press release, it doesn't really sound that much like a MMO. Good to hear about a big new game though.

I have reposted your links and the press release in The Shooting Range, since they are describing it as a FPS.

There's a compelling arguments for the new MMO to be the Diablo IP just as much as the Starcraft IP. I don't think it'll be a new IP, because part of the huge success of WoW was people's attraction and familiarity to an established lore. I guess we'll know soon enough...

I didn't notice this at first, since I was too busy reading the information about Tiberium.
EA and Blizzard are two completly seperate companies, so the announcement about Tiberium doesn't change the fact that Blizzard is working on another non-WoW MMO.

Yeah, and even more importantly Westwood isn't Blizzard, and EA merged with/ate Westwood and Activsion merged with Blizzard.

Argh. Confusing. Just bring me more games!
Although, I could do with a bit less EA in the picture. I dislike many things they have done to a lot of games.

actually Vivendi owns Blizzard/Activision/Sierra

EA has Westwood/Mythic/DICE so its pretty much turning into two companies for games lol.

Ehh Starcraft MMO or Warhammer:40K MMO not sure how either one of these would work. Starcraft has 3 races so would it be a la DAoC. And 40k has the extreme paranoid races who dont trust each other lol with a small exception. So should be interesting to see how this all plays out. At least they are not Medeival games
