Cryptic co-founder hints at homegrown Atari MMOs


Earlier today we reported on Cryptic Studios' acquisition by Infogrames/Atari. Today our sister site Massively has a bit more info on the deal via a very brief Q&A with Cryptic's co-founder Jack Emmert. While there's not much more concrete info in the chat, Emmert did hint at possible future MMOs for their new owner.

Emmert states, " Atari also has a number of terrific IP's that would make great MMO's". This suggests that Cryptic could develop titles for Infogrames/Atari that might be based on, say, Baldur's Gate. Indeed Atari CEO Phil Harrison suggested that Baldur's Gate is a franchise that will be revived at some point by the company. Could the unnamed MMO that was mentioned in today's press release be based on an Atari property? Stay tuned.
