Arkalis Interactive has answered SG Gaming Info’s question about when Stargate SG1 Unleashed takes place and they also confirmed the game will be on PC and possibly Xbox Live.
With the exception of the third-person shooter, Stargate: Resistance, and a cancelled MMO by the name of Stargate: Worlds, gamers haven’t had much opportunity to explore the rich Stargate universe within the medium of gaming.
Great article. I also love Stargate, and really wish we had more games from this awesome IP. I was in the Alpha for Stargate Worlds. It was really ambitious, had a ton of things they wanted to do, and even with the bugs in the Alpha grouping up was fun and exploring the worlds they had open at the time was great. Lots of bugs, but that’s to be expected of an Alpha. Had fun reporting all of the bugs as well, some hilarious and others game breaking. Then, all of a sudden, we got an email thanking us for our time, but it was over and gone. Bam! Oh well... What could’ve been...
We need a AAA studio to pick one of these up, because there's lots of opportunity because every world can be different. I mean even if Ubisoft picked it up, they could outsource several of the worlds to their different studios and it would still work.
Good news Stargate fans as RegalWorks Media have moved to acquire Working Element, the company behind Arkalis Interactive, creators of the first two episodes of the Stargate SG1: Unleashed mobile games.
It looks like the Stargate franchise has taken down another development studio, the studio this time are the Andorra based studio, Arkalis Interactive developers of the Stargate mobile episodic series, Stargate SG1: Unleashed.
they could make an epic MMORPG or SP outta this game but it's killed so many studios now... i'm upset it's gone nowhere
Stargate suits nearly any video game genre, but I feel that MGM might give up on trying to get the franchise into the video game market. Both Stargate Worlds (the alpha/beta)and Stargate Resistance were both relatively good games that were really hurt by lack of advertisement.
I personally never played SG1 Unleashed, so I'm not sure what it could have or couldn't have been.
