Now on to my first post.

Topware brings news that there Adventure/Rpg game Raven's Cry finally has a release date. The release date is set for October 24 2013.

Raven’s Cry is a dark action-adventure that will challenge the image of pirates in popular culture. Game events are seamlessly interwoven with historical ones to create an authentic, thrilling narrative. The game begins when Christopher Raven embarks on his vengeful quest to track down and kill the men who murdered his family.

Features
• Action adventure set in a dark re-imagining of the pirate-plagued Caribbean.
• Engage in fiercely tactical melee combat with an historical, authentic pirate-hunting arsenal.
• Player choice will have grave consequences on the outcome of the story- will you become a righteous seeker of renegade justice, or a conscienceless man whose ends justify his means?
• Utilize special combat abilities like Fear Power and cursed Voodoo Charms to overcome and dominate your foes.
• Challenge a memorable cast of villains to brutal, heart-pounding duels to the death as you seek your vengeance.

There webpage can be found here.

Congratulations on your first newsbit Couchpotato!

Looks like an interesting game, nice to see a pirate game without Jack Sparrow-type overtones. Wonder how much in the way of RPG elements it will have - probably of the "lite" variety given the genre its listed under.

I like the developer and I think Two worlds 1 & 2 were underrated, but I'm a little disappointed in the choice of theme. Between Risen 2 and the Two Worlds 2's expansion I'm a bit pirated out.

I'll probably still get it because I love 3rd & 1st Person Action Adventure RPGs, but I wish the setting was different.

Nope not the same dev team, just the same publisher. TW1-2:Reality Pump; RC: Octane Games

Nice first news post. The last sentence needs a bit of TLC.

Reality Pump was founded by Topware and they were the same company for quite awhile. I suppose technically they are separate, but not in a meaningful way.

It was a rethorical question. It's a different developer.

The live-action trailer is terrible. I don't expect much from this title, but I'll try not to judge until I see some actual gameplay footage.
