My.com Takes Over As Developer Of Armored Warfare

I've been wondering for a while now howObsidian Entertainment would handle the ongoing development of Armored Warfare. As a AAA company that primarily has experience developing single-player RPGs, it astonished me that it would create something of a modern era World of Tanks to begin with. Furthermore, the company currently has several other projects in development, all of which are more in line with what it traditionally creates.

Itwas announced last Saturday that Obsidian will not be handling the ongoing development of Armored Warfare itself. Instead, My.com will take over as the game's developer for the foreseeable future.

Obsidian Entertainment CEO Feargus Urquhart had the following to say about the announcement.

At Obsidian, we are grateful to have had the opportunity to work on Armored Warfare over the last four years. We are happy to hand off Armored Warfare to the talented developers at My.com who, we know, will deliver incredible updates and content to Armored Warfare fans across the world. Our focus at Obsidian will turn to currently announced games such as Pillars of Eternity 2: Deadfire, Tyranny, and Pathfinder: Adventures along with other unannounced projects. We are proud of everything we did on Armored Warfare and want to thank all of our dedicated fans for their involvement and support.

My.com Publishing Director Yuri Maslikov also provided a statement.

We are grateful for all contributions made by everyone on the Armored Warfare development teams, past and present. The restructured Armored Warfare development team is continuing the current development and update plans and will be dedicated to deliver content to our worldwide players in the most consistent manner.
