Cryptic Bought for $50 Million

Cryptic Studios, owner and creator of Star Trek Online, has been purchased for $50.3 million by Chinese game developer Perfect World. It was announced about two weeks ago that Atari was going to sell the company due to its lack of profitability. For now Atari confirms that the supported MMORPG's will not be impacted but exactly how that will change once the sale completes (which could take months) remains unknown.
