Interplay announced on Thursday that the company has signed definitive agreements with Masthead Studios concerning the development of Interplay’s post-apocalyptic Massively Multiplayer Online Game (MMOG), code named “Project: V13", which has been under development at Interplay since November 2007 by some of the original Fallout creators

Masthead joined the project in early 2009 and development continues under Interplay’s direction and control. Project: V13 will utilize the proprietary tools and MMOG technology Masthead developed for its “Earthrise” project.

Commenting on the announcement, Interplay Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Herve Caen said, “Masthead’s technology is impressive and perfect for our Project: V13. Its team is passionate to bring our vision and game play to the market. This MMOG will have many unique features that we will disclose before launch of the public Beta in 2012.”

More concept art has been 'released' for Interplay's Project V13, aka the Fallout MMO.  The Vault claims they were acquired from an "anonymous, but reliable source" and they're part of Interplay's defense in a lawsuit filed against the developer by Fallout-rights holder Bethesda.
