<br>“Neverwinter Nights is the definitive role playing experience on the personal computer,” said Steve Allison, vice president of marketing for Atari, Inc.’s Los Angeles studio. “With Neverwinter Nights: Shadows of Undrentide, we are giving the fans all new content for their single player campaigning as well as new tools to push their own creations to the next level in the Neverwinter Nights Aurora Toolset.”
<br>
<br>Neverwinter Nights: Shadows of Undrentide will include a new extensive single player campaign as well as game features new to Neverwinter Nights, such as additional D&D™ skills, feats, classes, monsters, weapons and spells. In addition, the pack will include three new tile sets and other assets for use in the Aurora toolset that will enable module designers to create completely different worlds.
<br>The game is being co-developed by BioWare Corp., creators of the original game and the popular Baldur’s Gate series, and FloodGate Entertainment. A second expansion, Neverwinter Nights: Hordes of the Underdark™, which will feature a new single player campaign and even more features is also in the works for Fall 2003 and is under development exclusively at BioWare Corp.
