New BioWare MMO a Star Wars title?

Posted on October 23rd, 2007 at 06:01 EDT

Rumours abound as Primotech 'confirms' that new BioWare MMO will be a Star Wars game.

According to Primotech, a source close to BioWare told them that the new MMO was based around the Knights of the Old Republic series of games, originally made by BioWare. Apparently said game should be expected by 2008. The editor has been quoted as saying “We’ve gotten several emails asking about the validity of this news. The only rumors we post here at Primotech will explicitly be stated as such”.

Ever since BioWare confirmed they were making an MMO in a new studio, rumours have been flying about that said game would be a new Star Wars MMO. In all interviews with BioWare staff, not a single bit of information about this new MMO was given, neither confirming or denying if it was a Star Wars title or not.

The unknown game has been cited as a major reason why EA ended up buying BioWare. With the lineage BioWare has as a Master RPG Maker, and with the strong KOTOR series to draw on, the game would likely be a smash hit, dwarfing the original success of Star Wars: Galaxies.

BioWare has made no comment at time of press, but keep your mouse aimed towards PSU for when they do.

Christ...rumors for BioWare making a SW MMO game have been about for at least 2 years ever since SOE screwed up the expansion pack on SWG.

I still play SWG to this day, its the best. I hope that BioWare can make an even better successor.

Sorry, TreeFrog, but IMO SWG was absolute crap. Anyways, since EA now owns Bioware, that could possibly mean that their new games could be released for the PS3 as well.

Obviously Sony has the pedigree to help release an MMO on this system.  It would go over really well I think.
