Ten Ton Hammer - Taking MMO Gamers to the Next Level!

Chinese developer NetDragon Websoft has licensed the IP for Dungeon Keeper from EA, with an eye towards making an MMO based on the beloved older game series. The original Dungeon Keeper was an RTS based on building deadly dungeons released in 1997, with a sequel in 1999.

The MMO that NetDragon will develop will be called Dungeon Keeper Online, and will be operated in China, Hong Kong, Taiwan and Macau. There are many fans over here though that would love to see it make it to the States.

"We are delighted to enter into an agreement with EA in the development of our first 3D MMOG," he said. "Our partnership with this internationally renowned game developer is proof of our capabilities in game operations and development as well as a reflection of our market reputation.

"Capitalising our strength to create a strong gaming experience, powerful operating platform and unmatched expertise within China's online game market, we are confident that Dungeon Keeper Online will not only become successful in the Greater China region but also achieve remarkable results overseas."
