Back in September, MMO house Perfect World
revealed plans to move into the mobile game space. Today, the company said that it has opened a console game division, and plans to release games for current and next-gen consoles.
This will be the company's first foray into the world of console games, having previously thoroughly explored MMOs and the free-to-play space on PC.
Perfect World will bring "prior and upcoming" titles to consoles. The company owns Cryptic Studios, which develops online games including
Neverwinter and
Champions Online. Perfect World also publishes
Torchlight II,
Blacklight Retribution and
PWI, among others.
The company says it will produce free-to-play online games for console audiences, calling the move to console "a natural progression for us."
