Online game developer and publisher NCSoft, the company behind the upcoming sci-fi MMORPG Tabula Rasa, has just announced the addition of a new member to its growing family of online game development studios.

The company today officially unveiled Carbine Studios, a dev team comprised of 17 former Blizzard employees that includes lead and senior developers who worked on the insanely popular World of Warcraft MMORPG. The Orange County-based studio is currently working on an as yet unannounced MMORPG project.

"This is a dev team made in heaven," said Robert Garriott, CEO for NCSoft's North American business. "This group is as experienced as they come in the area of computer role playing and multiplayer game design. Making successful games is second nature to them."
