It looks like rumors of NCsoft cutting their Austin, Texas based studio might actually have some kind of weight to them. Our sister sites Joystiq and Massively are reporting through their own sources that NCsoft might actually shut down their studios in Austin entirely. According to their reports, the free-to-play MMO Dungeon Runners would close down entirely while their sci-fi MMO Tabula Rasa would be moved to another NCsoft development studio.
Neither story has any info on when this shutdown might actually happen, if indeed it does happen, but it is known that Tabula Rasa has not been a sales success and the rumors state that it might actually shut down by sometime next year if subscriptions do not rebound. NCsoft's other US based development studios will be unaffected by this move.
