Codemasters Online Gaming has had its up and downs during the past two and a half years it has been in service to the online gaming community. With already four MMO titles credited to its name, vice president David Solari talks about the company’s future plans and how it plans to expand on its future projects.
He explained that Codemasters Online Gaming had a five year plan to work with, where they would be developing their own games somewhere by the middle of that time frame. They were still being careful of what track to take down this particular road since the MMO market was already saturated with various selections as well as other pitfalls.
Solari admitted that they initially took to licensing games such as Dungeons & Dragons Online and Lord of the Rings Online to learn the ropes, so to speak. They will continue their cautious approach into the PC market, where development costs are high and struggle with other difficulties from other emerging markets such as free-to-play gaming.
Codemasters Online Gaming plans on introducing a fifth title into its MMO line-up of games later this year with NetDevil‘s Jumpgate.
