On November 10th, SNK Playmore and NC Soft, a Korean gaming publisher, agreed on a contract that will allow NC Soft to publish MMORPGs for SNK Playmore. No, this isn't about licensing. SNK Playmore HIRED the NC Soft, responsible for creating City of Heroes, Lineage, and Guild Wars, to create MMORPGs of their franchises for them.
A similar concept has been tried by MEGA Enterprise, another Korean gaming publisher and distributer, with little success. To name one is The King of Fighters Online.
There are few evidences that The King of Fighters, Samurai Spirits, and Metal Slug franchises will be published by NC Soft as MMORPGs.
