Capcom, MMO Developer Partner on Secret Project
And... that's all the details that Capcom provided. It was a very short press release. However, Monumnetal's website offers the following tease of its first console game:
We can't reveal the franchise as yet, but we can say we're both proud and excited to be working on it. As you would expect given our core technology, there's a substantial online element, but the gameplay focus is pure adrenalin.
Monumental has released one game thus far, the free-to-play PC soccer MMO Football Superstars, with a hunting MMO, Hunter's World, early in development. The company recently bought half of 50 Cent: Blood on the Sand developer Swordfish Studios.

I was thinking of what franchises Capcom could bring to an mmo-genre and all I could think of was some crappy version of like Resident Evil (long live RE online!) with some sort of instancing a la Guild Wars where ppl meet at towns (acting as hubs) and group up to go kill zombies in Raccoon City.
Sidenote: I would really like if someone made a Baldur's Gate: Dark Alliance 3?4? and made it have multiplayer online.-

Rival Schools had a character creation mode that developed your character throughout a whole school year (albeit in a datesim game format) - I could easily see the idea expanded upon in an MMO setting wtih players attending the school of their choice during the day, then picking fights with other players outside of class.
