The Return of Lord British [Apr 12, 2022, 7:57 pm ET] – 44 Comments
Ultima creator Richard "Lord British" Garriott is returning to game development
in a new studio called DeMeta. Garriott co-founded the company with Todd Porter,
who we haven't heard from since his stint as CEO of ION Storm during its
high-profile early days. Lord British's latest game project was Shroud of the
Avatar, which was part of the
Kickstarter trend. This time
around it's the allure of the blockchain that fuels the new project. Here's
word:
DeMeta, a newly created gaming studio started by Todd Porter, a founding producer of Dungeons & Dragons and the original Ultima series, and MMORPG heavyweight and creator of the beloved Ultima series, Richard “Lord British” Garriott, has begun development on an online title that will integrate blockchain technology.
Reunited and leveraging decades of their world-building experience across genre-defining titles such as Ultima, Ultima Online, Lineage, Tabula Rosa, and Shroud of the Avatar, both Todd and Richard have already begun development, having made significant hires in recent months.
