Sometimes you have to read between the lines a little bit to gain the information that you want. Particularly contained deep within an article about Bioware’s engine they will be using in the upcoming MMO. It’s still unknown what the subject of the MMO will be, but it should be something to keep an eye on none the less. Within the article was the following:

Bioware has not announced the name or described the nature of its online game, but [Bioware Technical Director Tim Dalton] said it will be launched in 2009. Dalton said his firm wants to do more than match the state of the art represented by such online games as World of Warcraft.

MMOs have a notoriously long development cycle to fit in all that content, so it’s no surprise that the nameless MMO won’t be coming out this or next year. It would be nice to see what license if any will show up in MMO form, so cross your fingers for E3.
