Post-apocalyptic genre MMORPG?

Is there any post-apocalyptic type MMORPGs out there? If no, are there any coming out? This one of my favorite types of games. I would love a realistic post-apocalyptic game like FFVII.

    You might want to take a look at Earthrise. The game is set in a post-Apocalyptic world and is apparently sandbox-based.  You can find information on this site or on their own site: www.play-earthrise.com/index.php

    I think Interplay is working on Fallout MMO.

    Aside from whats already been mentioned, there is a live post-apocalyptic game out there right now.

    I have no clue if its any good however but it is there.

    Necron (looks like there is a 10 day trial available) Hellgate London is also an option.

    It is not confirmed yet. They are still looking for financing.

    I thought Bethesda now owns the Fallout license.

    Stray Bullet Games seems to be working on a futuristic mmo. Details are very limited though.

    Everything but the rights to publish an MMO based on the Fallout IP iirc, that ought to be in Interplay's hands still as clausule to the license.

    Yes Interplay retained the right to an MMO.  However, it had to be published by a certain year or the right to that went to Bethesda as well.

    "Bethesda has also established a comprehensive set of quality control and schedule-related requirements. Interplay may not sublicense any part of MMO development without Bethesda's approval. The MMO "must meet or exceed such quality standards as may be set by Bethesda from time to time" in order for Interplay to remain in good standing, and Bethesda has the right to inspect Interplay's offices and development progress at any time during normal business hours provided two days' notice is given. Furthermore, Interplay must enter "full-scale" development of the MMO with a minimum of $30 million in funding by two years from the signing of the agreement, or it immediately forfeits its rights to the license. The company must launch the game in North America and Europe within four years of that development commencement date, with the potential for a one-year extension if development is progressing adequately, giving the game a final release date limit of April 9, 2014.

    In return for granting Interplay the MMO rights, Bethesda will receive royalties of 12% of sales, subscription fees, or other revenue generated by the game"
