Say it isn't so! :cry:

I really hope whoever buys up THQ will continue work on DMO40k :(

Just saw it too. Ugh. :(

I'm curious about the publisher-developer relation here. THQ held the rights to DMO, but do they own the work? How likely is it that Vigil be picked up by another publisher (hopefully not EA)?

THQ's response

Quote:
THQ has not cancelled its 2014 line-up, and has not made any decisions regarding the planned MMO. As part of the ongoing review of our business, we have made decisions to ensure that the company is strategically addressing the most attractive markets. As we have previously announced, we have dramatically reduced our commitment to the kids' boxed games sector which leads to a significantly more focused release schedule moving forward. Our slate for calendar 2012 and beyond is focused on high-quality core games and continues to build our digital platform and business. We are excited for our pipeline of original and high-quality content along with our relationships with some of the best talent in the industry.

I certainly hope it's not canceled, it is true though that thq isn't exactly meeting it's projected earnings.

Wow, hopefully DMO is one of their "core games".

Yea just read up on this on IGN and mmorpg.com Seems the rumor is still unconfirmed.

They haven't confirmed DMO40k though, which is what really worries me.

"Has not made any decision on its MMO."
