Huxley, the sci-fi first person shooter MMO that was first announced over five years ago, is getting back together with its original developer Webzen. Big Download received an email today from Huxley's now former publisher NHN USA that it "has agreed to transfer future international publishing plans of Huxley: The Dystopia back to its developer, Webzen."

The statement added, "Both NHN USA and Webzen are internal divisions of NHN Corporation, and Webzen is currently revamping their international publishing platform. As part of this new global program, Webzen intends to self-publish Huxley. Our team at NHN USA fully support this decision after serious internal discussions between both divisions."

Announced in February 2005 as a retail game, the title has been delayed numerous times. In mid-2008 NHN USA announced that it would publish Huxley as a free-to-play game on its ijji.com web portal. The game actually went into closed beta testing in the summer of 2009 but since that test was completed NHN USA has only said that it was "working with the development team in Korea to iron out the kinks" in the game. There is still no word on when Huxley will actually be released.
