IR Report - FY 2003 |
Quarterly report time at NC - Korea!
Their new growth plan is to attract three different markets of users which they name "Market-Specific" with City of Heroes, Shining Lore, Exarch and Auto Assault, "Frontiers/New Concepts" with Guild Wars and Tabula Rasa and "Hard Core" with Lineage, Lineage II and Aion.
Aion seems to be a new game that is separate from Lineage and Lineage II. They expect to release it in 2004 and describe it as "Quarter View 3D Game, Medieval Fantasy, User Friendly, Game release in 2004." Notably absent from this entire report is describing Lineage 3D as a separate entity. Plans for Lineage remain as "Initiation Part II, Quality Improvement and Graphic Upgrade." Another thing that is missing is a plan for a console version of Lineage, however, they still mention wanting to diversify into the Console platform.
As for the release dates, the names have changed, but the years have stayed the same. Here they are:
- Lineage II - 2003
- Aion - 2004 (formerly Untitled)
- Shining Lore - 2003
- City of Heroes - 2003
- Exarch - 2003 (formerly Trade Wars)
- Auto Assault - 2004 (formerly Wreckage)
- Tabula Rasa - 2004
- Guild Wars - 2004 (formerly ArenaNet)
You can assume that the dates refer to release in the country it's being developed in.
