2K Games has announced that it has entered into a partnership with XLGames to develop a new MMO based on "a hit franchise" from the 2K catalog. The game is being developed, at least at the onset, for the Korean market. XLGames is the development house of Jake Song of Lineage fame.
"This is a great partnership between XLGAMES and 2K," added Mr. Song. "We have already been working together for a year on the game, and I can tell you this is one of the most exciting projects that I've ever undertaken. I cannot wait to launch this collaboration, which illustrates our shared development talent and passion to create cutting-edge entertainment experiences."
Hubert Larenaudie, president of Take-Two Asia concluded, "In all my years in the Asian gaming industry, I have never met a game creator with Jake's experience and caliber. I have no doubt that he will deliver another stellar title for the Asian market."
