NCSoft has taken
a new development studio under its wings, in this case a company called
Spacetime Studios, which is comprised largely of people whose previous
work includes Privateer, Wing Commander, and Star Wars Galaxies.
“Having the Spacetime team on board is a great step forward for NCsoft,” said Robert Garriott, CEO of NCsoft North America. “This group has a proven track record in creating games in the space genre. They’ve also been successful in developing massively multiplayer games and we believe that’s a winning combination and a perfect fit for the NCsoft lineup of products.”
“Spacetime and NCsoft is a great match,” said Gary
Gattis, Spacetime Studios co-founder. “They are a top-notch publisher that really cares about their developers and the quality of their games. NCsoft has shown us strong support and a willingness to provide a great balance of direction and freedom to develop a game that we have been dreaming of doing for years.”
As of yet, there
is on word as to what game Spacetime is currently working on.
