Shadowbane devs announce 'original IP' MMOG

Stray Bullet "committed to creating a fully-realized, ongoing online conflict that combines furious action with tactical and strategic game play" with new game
Stray Bullet Games, the studio born from the ashes of the defunct Wolfpack Studios (developer of MMORPG Shadowbane) has given first word on its new project.

Details are light, but the developer has revealed that the project's a massively multiplayer online game based on "an original intellectual property conceived in-house" and that it's "actively developing a proof of concept prototype" while "the concept phase is ongoing".

Stray Bullet has gone on to say that it's "committed to creating a fully-realized, ongoing online conflict that combines furious action with tactical and strategic game play." It mentions too that game characters, guilds and factions will be engaging in "meaningful, exciting, and fun mass combat.".

It's also added that one of the new MMOG's key aspects is its look and feel.

"We have two guiding principles: Rely upon the familiar and Be bold. In setting, systems and game play, we want to build on a firm foundation of features that are familiar and comfortable to MMO players, making the game as inviting and accessible as possible. We see no need to innovate in areas MMOs already do well. At the same time, in areas that do require innovation to achieve our goals, Stray Bullet will never think small", Mike Mike Madden, creative director, explained.
