Jumpgate Evolution looks OK so far like a more arcade version of EVE Online but without the looting, conspiracies, destruction of ships and resources, plex theft, and overall mayhem that make Eve so fun. oooh look you get to shoot turrets.

The PC MMO market is saturated like FPS on the console and these guys have their work cut out for them as their are some dam good one out there that are just getting noticed like Vindictus.

All screenshots of character customization. Based on them, zero interest.

EvertonFC718d ago (Edited 718d ago )

Art style looks absolutely awful, no wonder it got cancelled.
Do they think us gamers are like 5 years old or something ? Who was there target audience?

Smok91718d ago

The style of the MMO was based on into the spider verse

Terry_B718d ago

Terrible Fortnite Artstyle. yuck.

ChubbyBlade718d ago

That looks nothing like fortnite. It’s hideous but it’s not fortnite

techsquisite718d ago

Nope, it doesn't look anything like fortnite. It looks like the artstyle from The Incredibles movies.

anast718d ago

There is no need for a Marvel MMO like this. It looks cheap. Good decision.

Unannounced AAA Marvel MMO In Development at Dimensional Ink, Studio Behind DC Universe Online

It has been revealed that an unannounced Marvel MMO is in development at Dimensional Ink, the studio behind DC Universe Online.

MadLad902d ago

Not a big superhero fan, but this could be interesting. That's a pretty credible team behind the project.

darklaw902d ago

This is the company that brought DC Universe online, which in my opinion had the best cg intro of dc's heroes and villians. Should have been used and turned into a full length movie

ApocalypseShadow902d ago (Edited 902d ago )

Yeah. Still love that intro.

This news is also funny in a way if rumors are true. The company that helped create with Dimensional Link and publish DC Online and other MMOs was Sony owned until they sold them. But the game released and was successful for what it is across PC, PS3 and PS4 before branching off to other platforms. Over a decade of success.

The Marvel MMO was going to be on the OG Xbox until Microsoft canceled it like they did True Fantasy Online because they didn't think they would be successful.

I guess it will possibly release this time under new management and mainstream acceptance of superhero games. A Marvel MMO should have been a thing years ago.

jukins902d ago

Dc online is actually pretty decent, given itsnrelease date, and well supported. Wouldnt mind jumping into a more refined marvel version.

Stay-Toasty902d ago

I've read a lot of rumors that Sony may be heavily involved in this and possibly going for some exclusivity. But just like with all rumors, take it with a grain of salt. Could be dead wrong.

No matter what anyone says about the game being good or bad, or how it was filled with MT, it's still heartbreaking to see a whole studio being laid off. Specially in this way. Even more considering the date!! I hope this devs find jobs soon, as they really did the best they could to keep the game alive in the past few months.

cell9892367d ago

Worst timing the studio heads could have picked smh...

HexxedAvenger2367d ago

Jeez that’s horrible. How can they do that to their employees and sleep at night. >.<

Elronza2367d ago

Man this is sad. I was actually planning on investing time in this game as it has been in my back log.
