It seems like an interesting pairing but what sort of online game can Disney hope for from Shanda?
The game, which will be developed for a broader demographic than traditional online games, as well as China's burgeoning segment of female online gamers, will be available in China for open beta in the spring of 2007.
"The market for online games in China is large and growing, and it was important for us to find the right partner. We're pleased to have found that in Shanda," said Mark Handler, executive vice president and managing director, International, Walt Disney Internet Group. "Disney's rich content library, combined with Shanda's capabilities as a leading online game operator, will bring a new, unique and fun experience for the online game consumer. We actively look to bring more of our content to the online interactive entertainment market in China."
I have a feeling that it may be some kind of online version of Kingdom Hearts 2. Perhaps you can play as a character in the World of Disney and Mickey sends you on a quest to collect the still beating, bloody heart of Horace Horsecollar or something.
