Independent video game developer Realtime Worlds received a whopping US $ 31 million from New Enterprise Associates (NEA) to build new video game franchises and recruit top programming and game development talent from around the world.

In addition, the company is also working on All Points Bulletin, an original MMOG for PC and Xbox 360 in partnership with Korea">Webzen of Korea.

Realtime World said the big bucks will allow them to do "extraordinary things." One of those extraordinary things would be developing a global centre of excellence for some of the worldÂ’s best games developers.
