Dust 514 – EVE for Consoles

Dust 514 is a codename for a game which has been in development for almost two years. Made by CCP in cooperation with Sony Entertainment it was finally announced on E3 2011 that game is becoming a reality.

Little is known about the game. Apparently it is a FPS and MMORPG hybrid. CCP’s creative director in charge of Dust 514, Atli Mar, calls it Persistent Shooter. Shooter because basically it is a first person shooter and persistent because it will have you coming back for more by combining elements of FPS and MMORPG and giving console players the unique experience in the world of EVE OnLine.

Level 7 Announcement

On June 19, Privateer press announced that they will release a new product in science fiction setting called Level 7.

Google has some interesting results, but what stands out for me is Level 7 science fiction novel by Mordecai Roshwald. Speculation at this point but maybe the setting will be taken from the novel. We can only hope that this product will be compatible with Warmachine or Hordes products already published by Privateer press.

We will be closely monitoring this development.
