Gameloft Copycat Strikes Again; World Of Warcraft Ripped Off

by Phil Kollar on Mar 18, 2011 at 01:32 PM

That headline may seem harsh. I don't mean to suggest that Gameloft only ever rips off other studios' hard work, but I can just go ahead and let the trailer for its latest game do the suggesting for me.

Joystiq brings word of the mobile-focused developer's latest title, an MMO named Order & Chaos Online. Do you like fighting in stylized, colorful fantasy settings? Do you like taking part in the endless battle between night elves and orcs? Are you seriously not already subscribed to World of Warcraft? Be honest.

Cynical jabs aside, the idea of fitting a fairly competent-looking MMORPG onto the iPad, iPod Touch, and iPhone is potentially impressive. I'd consider checking it out when Gameloft releases Order & Chaos Online later this year, but...I'll probably just keep playing WoW. Enjoy the trailer!
