THQ announced today that Warhammer 40K Dark Millennium will now be a single player experience with robust online multiplayer features. It's not going to be an MMO because that would mean investing A LOT of money. "As previously announced, we have been actively looking for a business partner for the game as an MMO. However, based on changing market dynamics and the additional investment required to complete the game as an MMO, we believe the right direction for us is to shift the title from an MMO to a premium experience with single and multiplayer gameplay, robust digital content and community features,” said Brian Farrell, President and CEO of THQ Inc. “Because we believe strongly in the high-quality and vast creative work that is in production, this is the right decision for both our portfolio and for gamers devoted to this powerful property." Furthermore, THQ also announced that Vigil Games and Relic Entertainment has been reduced in size(lay-offs).
