Well it has been a while since my last post but I had to share this news. Seems Reality Pump has announced they have officially begun development of Two Worlds III.

And that’s not all! We’re also excited to announce a major engine update for Two Worlds II, and we’re going to need it, because while we’re laying down the basics for the third installment in the series, this year we’re also going to be releasing eight new Two Worlds II multiplayer maps and two brand-new, single-player DLCs, Call of the Tenebrae and Shattered Embrace!.

Yes and Raven's Cry was a failure due to another developer & lack of funds. So I sincerely hope they get enough funds to make Two Worlds III a better game.

I'm also interested in playing the two new Two Worlds II DLC's.

I could be wrong, but although Reality Pump still exists as a brand, I thought virtually all the staff left to join CDPR and others. I think this is Reality Pump in name only.

I`ve lost count how often their mother company went belly up, sold the IP to a new company with the same owners and started over.

Great news, I am probably one of the series biggest fans.
Wonder if this will bring Youngneil out of retirement so he can make the mod that links all four together.

In anticipation of this I grabbed the Two Worlds collection, currently a whopping 87% off at Steam. I haven't played Two Worlds 2 yet, but I'll give it a spin with the 2 new DLC.

From what I heard, it's game you either love or hate. It looks and sounds similar enough to Gothic 3 to have my interest. How do those two compare?

Two Worlds was made to be an Oblivion clone, and despite a few flaws it came quite close. As for Two World's II it followed the same formula, but updated the graphics.

Gokyabgu shared a short review back in 2011 if you're interested.:)

I might be in the minority, but I really liked how they did crafting. If you have the proper skills, you could break down various weapons and armor and make incremental improvements to your gear. If you find 5 short swords that all do 7 damage, you could break down the other 4 and have one short sword that would do 9-10 damage. There is a LOT of treasure in 2W2.

I forgot all about these! PC Gamer just mentioned the upcoming expansion to 2W2 and the Steam page is up. The game is expected in the 1st quarter of this year.

Glad to see these guys are still kicking. Their games were pretty solid, art and environment design in particular.
But man I'll never understand why they're going for big open world games with tenth of resources required.
Middle ground developers like this need to attract player interest with more creative settings and innovative game mechanics.

An expansion? To grind more animals I guess...
Meh.

Kind of bizarre for them to release an expansion for a 6 year old game. That has to be some kind of record for the time between a main game and an expansion.

Nah, WoW has them beat. Definitely odd though, is anyone still even playing this?
And the name! Sure explains a few things.
