Buona notizia per i fan del franchise.
Homeworld, acclamato gioco di strategia in tempo reale sviluppato da Relic, rischiava di fare una brutta fine a causa del fallimento di THQ.
Grazie a Gearbox però, Homeworld 1 e 2 vedranno luce su piattaforme digitali non ancora specificate e magari, se avranno successo, la compagnia investirà su un nuovo capitolo.
Gearbox inoltre invita tutti i fan a recarsi sul forum ufficiale del gioco per condividere opinioni riguardo il futuro della serie.
Ecco il comunicato ufficiale:
“Gearbox Software has prevailed as the highest bidder in the acquisition of the Homeworld franchise from THQ. Brian Martel, Gearbox Software’s Chief Creative Officer, has great love and respect for Relic’s brilliant, fun and innovative game and personally spearheaded the acquisition.
Brian intends as first priority to direct Gearbox’s interest to preserve and assemble the purest form of the original acclaimed and beloved games, Homeworld and Homeworld 2, with the intent of making them accessible on today’s leading digital platforms.
Please visit the Gearbox Software Forums to share with us and Brian what you think should be done with Homeworld moving forward. And, please try to get our attention if you have capability and interest to join the effort in developing or enabling Homeworld’s future.”
