It’s been a long and difficult road for Interplay’s Fallout MMO (code named “Project: V13”), including some legal troubles with Bethesda. But in a recent post on Interplay’s website, we’re told that “definitive agreements” have been finalized with Masthead Studios, and development has continued.
To brighten your day even more, read the following quote:
“Masthead’s technology is impressive and perfect for our Project: V13. Its team is passionate to bring our vision and game play to the market. This MMOG will have many unique features that we will disclose before launch of the public Beta in 2012,” Interplay Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Herve Caen said when he heard of the agreement announcement.
Interplay began development of the Fallout MMO in November 2007, with Masthead Studios joining the development process in early 2009. The only thing that has slowed the process down is the legal battles with Fallout 3 developer, Bethesda. Bethesda sued Interplay over a “breach of the contract” that was agreed to when Bethesda received the rights to develop Fallout 3. Bethesda claimed that it was against their agreement when Interplay began reissuing the old Fallout games. They were also suing over the rights to make the Fallout MMO, which obviously, Interplay won the battle.
2012 is still a long ways off, so to calm your nerves, try waiting for Fallout: New Vegas instead.
