We mentioned earlier that Anarchy Online's newest expansion, Legacy of the Xan will roll out this week on February 19th. The expansion is more of a booster, actually, which is what Anarchy Online game director Colin Cragg mentions in an interview with MMORPG.com's Jon Wood.
Cragg lays out what differentiates Legacy of the Xan from some of the larger expansions in the past, like Shadowlands or Lost Eden. The interview is heavy on details about Legacy of the Xan and what it brings to the game for existing players.
Cragg also talks about the new graphics engine that was announced last year, but has not yet made it into the game. He says, "The new engine is still currently in development and has not been put on hold in any way. Releasing the video when we did was definitely premature given the sheer amount of unanticipated work that was discovered later. I'm sure the community can imagine the deep dark mysteries of the AO codebase." Check out Jon Wood's interview with Colin "Means" Cragg over at MMORPG.com for more on what Anarchy Online fans have to look forward to.
