Survey, Web Site Indicate Planetside 2 Is In The Works

Huge buzz going around the Planetside community today as a survey email said to come from Sony Online Entertainment reveals plans “to expand the Planet Side universe with another game”. Also, someone found SOE registered Planetside2.com on September 21.

The email sought help from “loyal player(s) and experienced shooter fan(s)” in designing this next game. “Don’t worry about the original PlanetSide, it isn’t going anywhere,” the mail assures.

The independent site Planetside Universe found the Web site registration, and also reports that it reached John Smedley, the CEO of SOE, who said only, “PlanetSide fans will be happy we have big things planned in the next 12 months. We’re working on something new that’s really cool.”

I have emailed the press contact for SOE to ask if they’d like to shed any more light on this. Should we get a response, I’ll update with it here.

    Well this is fantastic news. This game was very under rated. One of the most enjoyable gaming experiences I have had.

    Hopefully SOE will promote this one a bit better than the last.

    I got the survey & filled it in with joy :-) I basically said keep the same game but with better graphics & compatibility with newer OSs.
