CPL Licenses Severity to Escalation Studios
CPL NewsIn a press release today, George Kaspiris of the CPL announced that they have licensed the development of Severity to Escalation Studios. Escalation Studios is a new effort headed up by Tom Mustaine, a former managing partner of Ritual Entertainment and a member of the CPL Advisory Board. There should be more information released regarding the game during the summer of this year.

"Severity is a multiplayer first person shooter (FPS) focusing on team-versus-team (hopefully CTF) and one-versus-one play modes. Additionally, the game offers unprecedented support for gamers worldwide playing in online and live competitions both casually and professionally.

The CPL will remain involved in general design, to insure that the game is one of the first to have the league’s new official designation of “E-Sports Ready.” The league plans to hold tournaments for the title once the playable demo is released."

The members of the Escalation team have had significant experience developing titles for the various Quake engines and we can only hope that they understand the bar that has been set for them by the only previous competitive title that matters in this genre, Quake 3. Nothing else has met that bar to date and while Quake 4 still has a shot, judging by the level of activity currently going in casual and competitive online play, I would have to say that ship has already sailed.

We will be following news of the future title closely, since clearly this is currently the best possible hope for a solid competition ready CTF, FFA, Duel, TDM game.
