If ever a mythology fitted the Massively Multiplayer Online genre so perfectly, it is that of the Warhammer 40,000 universe. Which is why THQ is thrilled to announce that the development of a Warhammer 40,000 MMO is already underway at Vigil Studios in Austin, Texas!
Following the critical and commercial success of the Warhammer 40,000: Dawn of War RTS series; the huge potential for the upcoming MMO is clear. Existing Games Workshop fans should be enraptured by such an interactive world; whilst existing MMO fans may find the transition to the rich Warhammer 40,000 universe a truly enticing option.
