Sony Online Entertainment announced today that they've teamed up with Virgin Comics in an attempt to enter the gaming space in India, using the popular Ramayan 3392 franchise as its choice for the MMO.
On hand to make the announcement was Johny Smedly, President of SOE and Sharad Devarajin, Co-Founder and CEO of Virgin Comics.
“Virgin Comics approached us with a portfolio of amazing comic properties based on Indian lore. We particularly love Ramayan 3392 A.D., as we feel Virgin Comics’ telling of The R®m®yana is particularly gripping, graphically brilliant and lends itself extremely well to an MMO,” said Smedley. “This a fantastic time for us to expand our games to include this culturally rich storyline and we are honored to do this with a diversified, creative and experienced company like Virgin Comics.”
