Developer blows open MMO sequel.
MMO Kingdom Under Fire II works on Xbox 360 but still won’t be released until – at the earliest – Christmas 2011, Eurogamer can reveal.
Why? The same reason Champions Online struggled on console: the closed Xbox Live platform.
“Our initial plan was we wanted to develop the console version first – the Xbox 360 version,” KUFII game director Sang Youn-Lee told us. “We actually have completed the system, but because of the policy, we felt that if we kept developing [it] the PC version would have come out too late.”
