Electronic Arts has announced that it has acquired social RPG-maker, KlickNation, and has re-branded it as BioWare Sacramento. That’s not the end of the branding, however, as BioWare Sacramento and BioWare San Francisco will be brought together as “BioWare Social”. BioWare Social will focus on RPG games for social platforms like Facebook.
“KlickNation’s expertise in building innovative and compelling RPGs for social platforms makes them a seamless tuck-in with the BioWare team at EA,” said Dr. Ray Muzyka, Senior Vice President and General Manager of EA’s BioWare label. “We share the same creative values. The new BioWare Social unit will bring BioWare and EA franchises to the growing audience of core gamers who are looking for high quality, rich gameplay experiences on social platforms.”
