“After OMDU was stopped, Robot had to reduce the size of our study. We had resized and focused our efforts to create games smaller than an MDG game. We did not know when or if we would return to the OMD franchise.
“We met with Google to find out more about Stadia for our other projects. We found that Google users were huge fans of OMD. This led to an exploration of what might be possible with an OMD game on Stadia. We were both excited about our ideas and decided to follow them.
“MDG3 would not be possible today without the support of Google. It is largely thanks to them that this game will see the light of day. We hire more developers to make this happen. This is the OMD game that fans of the first two games have missed, and we are delighted to have the opportunity to do so.
When OMD3 is available in Spring 2020, it will be a temporary exclusive on Stadia. We will tell you more about other platforms in the future. «
