Relic Moving Into New Genres

15

According to this story on FiringSquad, Relic Entertainment looks to be exploring new genres for upcoming projects. Predominantly an RTS developer up until this point (with the exception of the Xbox 360 action game The Outfit), the THQ Careers website notes one Senior Designer job opening for "our new RPG project" while this job opening, also for a Senior Designer, mentions that this person will "join our MMO team". Relic most recently released Company of Heroes and the Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War expansion pack Dark Crusade.

      Unless it's a competitor to the EVE online!

      There's a blurb on Relic's entry in the Wiki that they supposedly reacquired the Homeworld Franchise from Vivendi, but no official confirmation. Where's the quality controls damn it!

        Yes, please no Eve Online competition. I don't need to play two space sims from two companies that know how to do space sims. One MMO is enough to ruin my life.
