Lineage III is a sequel to Lineage II by NCsoft. The Lineage III project began January 1, 2008 and will be announced to the public in 2011.
On April 27, 2007, Seoul Metropolitan Police said that seven former employees of NCsoft are suspected of selling the Lineage III source code to a major Japanese game company. According to NCsoft, the potential damage caused may exceed $1 billion USD. [3][4][5][6][7][8]
Lineage III was originally anticipated to use the Unreal Engine 3,[9][1][2] but a NCsoft representative has since stated that NCsoft will instead develop an entirely new proprietary engine.[1][2]
