Well, calling it a “website” might be a bit of a stretch. It’s more of a digital poster really. Still, it looks like the rebirth of Interplay is officially underway. Fastidious X3F readers will recall that the company submitted an SEC filing late last year that detailed plans to return to the video game development business, largely in thanks to the profits made in the sale of the Fallout IP to Bethesda. Stated plans included the revival of several of Interplay’s well-known franchises including Earthworm Jim, MDK, and Baldur’s Gate. It seems that Interplay is moving forward with its plans, as the new website will attest. Consisting solely of the image seen above, Interplay.com clearly references all three of the franchises mentioned above as well as Fallout (most likely the MMO Interplay has been speaking about since 2006). Let’s hope we see some details sooner rather than later.
