An interesting press release from SOE today released a fact sheet for a Stargate Online Trading Card Game. It got me thinking. Obviously, this means nothing in and of itself, but given SOE clearly has the license to do a trading card game in this universe, it makes one wonder what the relationship between SOE and Cheyenne Mountain is?
Currently, Stargate Worlds - the MMO - is in production at the independent Arizona-based developer and has not yet announced any publishing plans. Given the way SOE snaps up MMOs, I wouldn't be shocked if there's more to this press release than meets the eye. Kevin Balentine, the Public Relations Manager for Cheyenne Mountain, responded to our theory.
"We were excited to hear about the Stargate TCG and its online counterpart coming from SOE," Balentine told WarCry. "Seeing the franchise move into new gaming mediums highlights its continued popularity. We wish Sony great success in this endeavor.
"We're continuing to move discussions forward with a number of very prominent publishers, but we don't have anything specific to report on this at the moment," he added.
Interesting indeed! Click the link below for info on the TCG.
