Publisher Ubisoft recently trademarkedShadowbanefor “non-MMO gaming purposes,” as discovered bysuperannuation.
A free-to-play (and then partially ad-supported) role-playing title,Shadowbanewas originally launched back in 2003 for PC and Mac. Servers for the title were eventually shut down this past July, despite pleas from players (via the ever-popular Internet petition) to keep it alive. At its peak,Shadowbanemade its way to the top of PC charts, and suffered from over-crowded servers due to its popularity.
Maybe Ubisoft thinks that popularity will spill over into the non-MMO world. An action title based in Shadowbane’s world of Aerynth, perhaps? Do we have anyShadowbanefans in the house? What would you like to see?
