| Realms of Arkania 4 Confirmed! |
|
You may recall a recent rumour we posted that a new Realms of Arkania game was in development - possibly by Master Creating. At the time, some confusion was caused because dtp/Anaconda is expected to show two new RPGs at E3. It seems Realms of Arkania 4 is indeed in development - although at Radon Labs - and according to <a href="http://www.pcgames.de/?article_id=464501" target="_blank">PC Games.de</a> and will be featured in their June issue due in a few days. |

Awesome news. PUH-LEEZE don't dumb down the rules system. A good, hardcore CRPG would be very, very refreshing. |

Is it definitely a genuine "screenshot"? i.e., Are they that far into development? If so, this just gets batter and better! |

Release is 4th quarter 2007. So it' s more than 1 year away.
I played shadows over riva 8 years ago and i liked it but he gfx were really bad even for it's time but gameplay was ok. It's sad that Guido Henkel won't be part of the team again. |

I hope it is more like Blade of Destiny that the other 2. BoD was much more non-linear and a lot larger, They better not do away with the overland map either, Shadows over Riva was by far the worst in the series simply because it didn't have the same party management system as the first 2. |

I wouldn't want them to dumb down the rules system, but it would be nice if they balanced it a little bit. Just because something is in the pen and paper RPG doesn't mean it has to be in the computer version if it doesn't actually do anything. |

Here is the official PR. For some reason we didnīt get this one:

Hey Gorath,
There's a few posts in the German forums, but my German is pretty lousy. If you're not too busy, any chance you (or some other kind-hearted German speaker) could scan the subject titles and see if there's anything of substance there? I can't make head nor tail of it with Babelfish.
Cheers! |

Not today, sorry.
Subscribers should receive the PC Games tomorrow, though. It would be nice if one of our readers could send us a summary.
