NetDragon, the developers who are also creating online games for both Dungeon Keeper and Ultima in Asia, has a Transformers MMO in the works. The game is said to be out next year, though few other details have been released at this time. One curious thing is that Asian, North African, Middle Eastern and Russian have been mentioned as territories that would receive the game, but the U.S. seems to be left out for now.
“Transformers is already a household name in China, and we are extremely honored to be able to join hands with Hasbro to bring the excitement and fanaticism of Transformers into the online gaming sector” said NetDragon’s Liu Dejian.
Its hard to say much when nothing is known about the game at this time, but its an interesting idea. My big question is what version of the Transformers will be featured in the game? Will the robots in disguise be modeled after the ones that have appeared in the recent movies, or could we see some classic generation 1 Transformers? My vote is for G1. I’m really not a fan of the recent movie versions of the Transformers, and if that is what they’ll look like, then I would lose a lot of interest in playing this game.
