WOW bald auf PS3, Xbox 360 & Co.?

Im PC-Spielebereich ist Blizzard eine feste Größe. Titel wie World of Warcraft oder Starcraft haben ganze Spielegenres geprägt. Auch der lukrative Konsolenmarkt liegt nun im Fokus des Rollen- und Strategiespielspezialisten.

WOW bald auf PS3, Xbox 360 & Co.?

Das Online-Magazin Gamasutra.com sprach mit Samwise Didier, Senior Director von Starcraft 2, und J. Allen Brack, Production Director von World of Warcraft, über die Entwicklungen auf dem PC-Spielemarkt.

Didier sieht den PC auch weiterhin als wichtiges Medium für das virtuelle Spiel. Attraktive Games, so Didier, werden immer gespielt, egal auf welcher Plattform: "I don't see the PC market as being bad. I mean, we didn't have 12 million players ten years ago. Whatever the format, console or PC, I think if there is a good game, it's going to be played."

Allerdings verweist Didier auf die Beständigkeit und Einheitlichkeit des PC-Spielemarktes hin: "We're working on PC because it's familiar to us and it's relatively easy and it's not changing formats every other year and there aren't three different versions. Console, we have to worry about [those things]. I think the PC is really a good market to target."

Da Blizzard in den vergangenen 15 Jahren keine Konsolentitel hervorgebracht hat, hält sich das Gerücht, dass das Entwicklerstudio vielleicht sogar insgeheim die Konsole ablehne. Brack entkräftet diese These: "That's absolutely not the case. We just want to make the right game for the right platform.
...Think about StarCraft II. Some real-time strategy games have tried to happen on the console. Some of those have been successful, but overall, our experience is that it's going to be a better game on the PC, ergo it's developed on the PC." Hiernach spricht Brack im Grunde das aus, was viele denken. Es ist mit Sicherheit wenig effektiv, wenn auch möglich, ein Strategiespiel mit dem Controller zu steuern. Auch World of Warcraft lasse sich mit seinen Eingabemöglichkeiten kaum auf eine Konsole transportieren.

Brack will sich aber nicht falsch verstanden wissen und gibt zu verstehen, dass sich Blizzard künftig auch auf dem lukrativen Videospielemarkt etablieren will: "But we're a company of gamers. I have two consoles at home. Sam has consoles. We're a culture of gamers. We will definitely work on a console game at some point. I have no doubt about that. It's just [a matter of] what game. What makes the most sense?"

Tja, was könnte wohl am sinnvollsten sein? ploynt sagt: Maus- und Tastatursteuerung für alle!
