Codemasters Sign JumpGate: Evolution
Published on
Auto Assault and Lego Online devs NetDevil haven't given up on their original MMO project, JumpGate, and the whole thing is getting a reboot with JumpGate: Evolution. A developer chatlog over on Stratics confirms that the game is set to be published by the online wing of British publishing house, Codemasters.
The game should offer a rather different flavour of space MMO than Eve Online, as it's an Elite-style free-flight system, rather than point and click menu-based controls. It's also sharded, and rather less heavy on the PvP; mixing both PvE combat and player-on-player action between safe and open-combat zones across the game.
