The MMO world has finally grown up. Enough so that MMO fans will soon have their own magazine thanks to Computer Games Magazine. Massive Magazine will be a quarterly publication that is anticipated to contain not only a ton of stories, but also DVD demos of upcoming games and more.
A few years ago a magazine for MMOers might not have flown, but now with new titles coming out all the time, it seems like a more than logical choice. The numbers for Blizzard’s World of Warcraft are enough to speak of the genre’s popularity – more than 6 million players worldwide. Add to that titles like EQ, EQII, City of Heroes, LoTR, Star Wars and on and on and it becomes clear this idea is a good one.
The magazine is expected to launch later this year. For more information on the new publication, click here.
The MMO market is growing at a tremendous rate, with games like World of WarCraft dominating the sales charts worldwide." said Jayson Dubin, Vice President and Publisher of Computer Games Magazine. "As more people enter online worlds and these worlds become a bigger part of their everyday lives, we know it's the right time to publish this magazine. We are positioning MASSIVE Magazine as the ultimate guide for MMO communities. We are not only going to focus on the latest games but also the world of the MMO gamer."
