IGNPC: We've heard that there's a definite storyline in mind. Without spoiling the resolution, can you tell us just a bit about the overall shape or direction of the early story?

Toby Ragaini: The Wachowski Brothers and Paul Chadwick have written a story line that is intended to cover the first year of service in The Matrix Online. The overall theme of the story has been described as "peace and the things people do to wreck it". All the major characters that survived the movies are included in the story arcs, and what's really exciting is that not all of them are going to survive the peace.
