NetDevil's Space MMOG Being Publisher by Codemasters

'Jumpgate: Evolution' Coming in Late 2008

Codemasters Online Gaming has announced its next big project is publishing a space MMOG from NetDevil, developers of the recently deceased Auto Assault. The new title is called Jumpgate: Evolution and will feature epic battles between fleets of spaceships, a persistent universe, the potential for thousands of other players to play with and customizable ships for warfare or mining purposes.

Although the title sounds a lot like Eve Online it is actually the sequel to NetDevil's 2001 title, Jumpgate, which is still active and was marketed as a space combat game. Jumpgate: Evolution is slated for release in North America and Europe on the PC late in 2008.

Codemasters Online vice president David Solari stated, "We are very pleased to be working with NetDevil to release this exciting project across North America & Europe. Jumpgate brings something new and fresh to the online persistent space. The all-action approach and thrilling, twitch-based space combat really sets it apart from other MMOs in the market and we are very much looking forward to releasing this space epic in late 2008."
