"EVERQUEST" VETERANS BRAD MCQUAID AND JEFF BUTLER FORM SIGIL GAMES ONLINE, INC.
SAN DIEGO, CA -- January 22, 2002 -- Brad McQuaid and Jeff Butler, formerly of Sony Online Entertainment and key figures in the development of the popular "EverQuest" series, today announced the formation of Sigil Games Online, Inc. The new company is dedicated to the production of massively multiplayer online role-playing games.
Sigil's official website is set to launch this spring, and the company will begin adding designers, artists, and programmers to its staff later this year.
McQuaid and Butler are both creators of the massively multiplayer runaway hit "EverQuest," developed by Verant Interactive. The game shattered all multiplayer game records after its release in 1999, exceeding all industry expectations and inspiring three top-selling expansion packs.
McQuaid is President and CEO of Sigil, and Butler has assumed the role of Vice President.
