BioWare announced that it is planning its own massively multiplayer online RPG, and is opening a studio in Austin, TX to work on the game. According to the press release, the MMORPG will combine "the best of BioWare's great past games with a compelling persistent online experience". BioWare is hiring for the new studio, with job postings available at

Seems like everybody is jumping into the MMORPG wagon these days. Hope that this won’t distract them from making single player RPGs.

Everyone has already jumped on the band wagon. Anyone else who joins now is considered to be a straggler. These software companies (unfortunately) feel they better do something or else they're missing out. What that means for the rest of us is a lot more of the same old stuff. Hopefully Bioware will come up with a new idea entirely and steer clear of the fantasy genre. Only time will tell, I suppose.

Bioware doing a non-fantasy game ????? 8O That might be good.

Maybe they’ll do a MMOFPS :twisted:

I was thinking that would be really cool if they did like a futuristic civil war setting.

Maybe even add a slight RPG element into it. Commanding ranks an what not.

I can see the headlines “Bioware does MMO Fallout Tactics with real-time battles and first person view”

Heaven forbid!

Maybe not Fallout Tactics, but I would be all over a Fallout based MMO game. Can you imagine how much fun a development team could have with that universe... :D

Unfortunately with the current holier than thou attitude in the US it would take a real brave developer to do that. I mean the game has sex, drugs and ultra violence. :(

Too bad. Something like this might convince me to jump the MMORPG bandwagon.
