Big news for upcoming MMORPG The Chronicle: Online game publisher Rapid Reality, LLC is acquiring the entire MMOLands portfolio, including The Chronicle. This is not simply an administrative change, however. As a result of the acquisition, all in-development MMOLands games will now be switching over to Rapid Reality's newly-obtained Aura Game Engine Platform. As mentioned in the official release, this massive change means at least a 2-month slip in The Chronicle's development schedule.
Rapid Reality, LLC completed terms today in acquiring the Aura Game Engine Platform developed by Aaron Boucher and the X-Src team, the MMOLands portal, www.mmolands.com, and each of the MMOLands games: Endless Ages, Race Lands, Ancient Lands, Museum Lands and other title still in development. Each MMOLands game will be transitioned to the MMOCenter portal and will be supported and enhanced by the MMOCenter team. The transition from the MMOLands portal to the MMOCenter portal will start in December and is expected to be completed by the first of the year. Along with the transition of the MMOLands Portal, MMOCenter will be updating each of the games over the course of the next few months with completely new art and updated functionality. More to come on the MMOLands transition at a further date.
Rapid Reality will no longer be utilizing the Kaneva Engine platform. Rapid Reality’s first game, The Chronicle, is in the process of being ported to the Aura Game Engine Platform. The company expects a two to three month technology porting process delaying The Chronicle Beta till late January or early February, with a targeted launch date of the beginning of March. Rapid Reality has been working closely with X-Src over the past weeks in porting areas of The Chronicle over to the new platform and is confident in their ability to meet this target date after the initial success they have had with ongoing porting process to date.
