Apparently these secret little projects have been going for ”quite some time.” Neverwinter is their next big project, proving Cryptic can produce quality.
”We’ve got plenty of other games under wraps,” revealed Emmert. ”That’s kind of cool - you can at least say I let slip that I have other projects underway; I have several other projects here at Crytpic.” Star Trek Online and Champions Online are big time guzzlers.
”These other projects have been underway for quite some time.” Publisher Atari now owns the developer. Neverwinter is apparently Cryptic’s shot at proving they can produce a quality ‘finished’ game unlike their current offerings admits the studio.
”You’re only as good as your last game,” admits Emmert. Neverwinter is a follow-on from BioWare’s Neverwinter Nights, but it won’t be a RPG or an MMO but instead a multiplayer online game, with fees. Yeah it sounds like an MMO - but it isn’t…
