Is ‘Neverwinter’ set to revolutionize yet again?
Earlier today a press release was put out detailing the upcoming standalone Neverwinter title. Much of this was centered on the storyline and gameplay of the title:
Story
The landscape of Faerûn has changed over the last one-hundred years. The Spellplague forever changed the world. Empires have fallen, cities have toppled, and through this plight the only remains were monsters and humans struggling to stave off extinction. Somehow, the city of Neverwinter survived this catastrophe; but all is not well. Nearly seventy-five years later, a volcanic eruption rained fire, ash, and molten lava down on the city. This effectively ruined the once-great city.
In the game’s current time, Neverwinter has regained much of its former grandeur. The humans, dwarves, and elves that survived all work in unison to create an even more impressive city. Evil forces however, have different plans.
Gameplay
- The game will offer you the chance to defend the city or travel outside its walls and conquer dungeons and monsters elsewhere.
- Creation tools introduced in this iteration of the franchise will give players the chance to build their own levels and bring quests to life.
- Work cooperatively or fight by yourself. Not only does the game offer you the opportunity to work with other players, but AI as well.
- The ‘Foundry’ – An all-new feature that highlights the best user-created levels and lets you and your friends play through them to your hearts content.
Look for ‘Neverwinter’ later this year!
