Develop points the way to some
court documents revealing the disposition of more Atari IP, following a big
auction in May and the sale of a couple of other
properties
last month by the
bankrupt publisher. Word is
Rebellion placed successful bids on the
Battlezone and
Moonbase Commander
franchises, Stardock Systems will acquire the rights to strategy classic
Star
Control, while Wargaming is now owner of
Master of Orion and
Total Annihilation.
That last acquisition seems especially noteworthy since Wargaming also
recently
aquired Gas Powered Games, which means the Total Annihilation property is now
reunited with GPG's Chris Taylor, who created the RTS series back in the CaveDog
days.
