Wizards of the Coast President Expresses Interest in a New Dungeons & Dragons MMORPG

John Hight, the president of Wizards of the Coast, has expressed his desire to see a new Dungeons & Dragons MMORPG. With his background in the gaming industry, including his time as general manager of the Warcraft franchise, Hight believes that a new D&D MMORPG could be a great opportunity for the company. He notes that the traditional MMORPG model could use updating and that technology can help make it easier to accomplish. Hight also highlights the flexibility of the D&D brand, which can adapt to different styles of play and distribution methods. While there are already existing D&D online games, such as Dungeons & Dragons Online, Hight thinks that there could be room for a new MMORPG.
