Atari to Announce a New D&D Title Soon, Probably Neverwinter MMO

I had several emails in my inbox this evening pointing me to this report on superannuation that not only confirms that Atari will be announcing a new Dungeons & Dragons video game soon (sometime after Gen Con, anyway), but also lists several new Neverwinter-related websites that the company purchased earlier this week. This lends some substantial evidence to the previous Neverwinter Nights MMORPG rumors (here and here):

Atari has an announcement coming about some kind of D&D video game but they couldn’t talk about it here.

At this point, the question is really when the announcement is coming. GamesCom later this month? Or maybe during Bill Roper’s appearance at GDC China later this year?
