John Smedley took a break to post on the Sony Station Blog letting everyone know they’ll be announcing a new online game at the SOE’ Fan Faire ‘07 in Vegas.
Smedly claims it’s a game they’ve had in the works for a long while with the implication that it is a new title. Assuming this won’t be the coming out party for the previously announced FreeRealms or The Agency, SOE could very well have outdone Blizzard’s Starcraft 2 stealth announcement.
Depending on the nature of the announced title, this type of launch could do very well given the anecdotal evidence of burnt out MMO players desperately looking for something new to tide them over for a few months before the bulk of new MMORPG’s hit the market.
With SOE showing the game off on August 3rd, then following up quickly with a full retail launch at the end of the month they could be positioned to capture a decent amount of online gamers willing to give it a try.
Personally I’m hoping for Hello Kitty Island Adventures Online with some of that Smedly magic… Hardcore all the way! -DR
