News: The popular MMO game maker breaks into the console market.
South Korean based Webzen has plans to make a big push in the North American Massively Multiplayer Online market. Their E3 list is mostly filled with PC releases, but one title is also scheduled for the Xbox Next: Huxley.
Huxley is a massively multiplayer online first person shooting game (MMOFPS) utilizing the UNREAL3 engine to create an unparalleled gaming experience with up to 5,000 players in the same world. Huxley takes place in a post-apocalyptic world where human beings have mutated and are divided into two opposing races, Sapiens and Alternative. At the center of the battle for survival is Lunarites, a promising new energy source highly coveted by both races. Forced to battle against one another for the continuance of each race, Sapiens and Alternatives will do whatever it takes to wipe out the opposition and gain control of the world and its resources. Scheduled for release in 2006, Huxley will be available for PC/CD-ROM and the next-generation Xbox video game platform.
