'Two Worlds 3' in the Works, 'Two Worlds 2' to Get 'Major Engine Update' Soon
Action role-playing game series "Two Worlds" is getting a third instalment as confirmed by the game's publisher TopWare Interactive and Polish developer Reality Pump. According to a Tech Times report, both TopWare and Reality Pump announced that they were working on "Two Worlds 3." They also shared that "Two Worlds 2" will be getting a major update and new content soon.
According to the report, TopWare said that the new game will be developed within 36 months, which is their normal game development cycle. They are currently working on the game's concept. The publisher also noted that the franchise has garnered several game awards and has sold well over 10 million units, which they say is their motivation behind working on the third game of the series.
Surprisingly, "Two Worlds 2" which was released way back in 2010 will also be getting new content and a "major" update on the game's engine, according to TopWare. The report cited that the engine update will feature better details in character models and game environment, as well as new in-game features and upgrades as well as achievements.
A new engine will also usher in new content for the game. According to the report, developer Reality Pump will be bringing eight new multiplayer maps to the game, and two DLC packs called "Shattered Embrace" and "Call of Tenebrae." Among the two DLC packs, the first one to be released sometime in Q2 of 2016 is "Call of Tenebrae." In this DLC, the game's protagonist will return to Antaloor and face off with enemies called "The Chosen" who look very much like rodents. No release date or window was given for the second pack "Shattered Embrace."
The update to "Two Worlds 2" will likely be released for all platforms: PC, Xbox 360 and PS3. The game does not have a version of current-generation consoles. It was unclear in their announcement if they are developing versions for older generation consoles, but given the 36-month time frame, this rules out that possibility, according to the report.
