Warhammer Online Producer’s Letter, BioWare Now BioWare Mythic

Mythic Entertainment’s Carrie Gouskos has posted another producer’s letter to the Warhammer Online: Age of Reckoning website, in which she covers the game’s forthcoming v1.3.6 content patch, the ongoing GOA transition for European players, and apparently an unannounced name grouping for what was previously two separate EA-owned entities: BioWare Mythic.

In the meantime, there is a lot going on right now! As you now know, we are working with GOA to transition the European community over to Bioware Mythic (Like the fancy new name? We’re still getting used to it ourselves). We’re overjoyed to welcome our European players and are looking forward to more direct interaction with them. For anybody who is curious about the details of the transition, please refer to the transition post and corresponding FAQs in French, English, and German. At the current time, to ensure that we’re not disrupting too much at once, the European players will be playing on mirrored servers of their current environment, simply hosted by Bioware Mythic at our facilities in Dortmund Germany. This consists of two English, two German, and one French server. We will, of course, continually monitor population levels and will consider server consolidations as necessary. If you have an opinion on that, whether you’re playing from North America, Europe, Taiwan, Tajikistan, or any one of the 200+ countries and territories that is currently playing Warhammer, feel free to hop on over to our forums and let us know.

Does this mean that Dragon Age II, Mass Effect 3, and Star Wars: The Old Republic will all feature new BioWare Mythic logos on their boxes? Likewise, does it mean that BioWare’s name will be slapped onto all of Mythic’s future projects? I guess we’ll find out sooner or later.
