Just caught this on facebook:

Zattikka, the company behind games like Fantasy Kingdoms’ Cloud Village (app) and Fantsay Kingdoms (Facebook) and Syfy Monster Island (Facebook), has signed a license deal with Games Workshop to create a free to play, 3D isometric, game based on the Warhammer 40K Titans.

The game will have single, multi-player and social gaming modes, support single and chain missions and support PCs, Macs and tablets. The game is being developed in Zattikka’s US studio and if all goes well will expand with DLC.

Mark Opzoomer, the CEO of Zattikka, said;

“We are delighted to be working with Games Workshop on such a prestigious and important gaming franchise. Warhammer 40,000 is one of the most globally recognisable science fantasy genres, appealing to a broad cross section of gamers.”

And Jon Gillard, Head of Licensing at Games Workshop, added;

“Titans have been around since the early days of Warhammer 40,000 when they first appeared in our ‘Adeptus Titanicus’ game, and have been a firm fan favourite ever since. Seeing these massive engines of destruction fight it out in an online game is going to be fantastic.”

Zattikka, likes Games Workshop, is based in the UK and owns other studios like Sneaky Games, Spellgun and Hattrick.

between this and the game with Slitherine, GW is going hard for that video game money.

Not stoked that these guys seem to have only made Facebook and mobile based games, but an isometric titan game sounds like it could be really cool.

I wonder how long it took them to explain free to play to GW executives?

A bit late, we had a thread on this a few days ago:

Slightly old news, but thanks you for the thought and effort anyway
