Next Two Worlds announced for 2012 News • News • Eurogamer.net

TopWare spills the fantasy beans.

TopWare has surprised us all by announcing the next Two Worlds game - presumably Two Worlds III - despite the second instalment still days from its Friday UK release.

"We are trying to do a better job every time and have brought in a brand new 3D modelling, animation and CG team for the next Two Worlds game coming out in 2012," TopWare managing director James Seaman wrote on Destructoid.

Eurogamer contacted Seaman who said an official date and title announcement was "about three months" away. It's true, then.

Two Worlds II has been dragged through the press, mainly for numerous and unfortunate UK delays, but most recently amid allegations of TopWare pressuring sites to alter review scores - something Seaman vehemently denies.

All of which overshadows what is an accomplished, enjoyable - often brilliant - fantasy RPG. Eurogamer awarded Two Worlds II a "good" 7/10.

I'm a little surprised they didn't wait a short while for all these allegations of score fixing, bribery and threats to blow over, frankly. The mood surrounding them seems a little ugly right now.

Like I said in the Risen thread, didn't even see this.

Problem with these games is is that they try to build an epic huge RPG but try to cranck it out in 2 years time without having the manpower of a Ubisoft. Risen, Gothic, Two Worlds, etc. All need an extra year in the oven

About time they got rid of the crap publisher if they intend to continue with this series, as the current one for the UK sucks bigtime and needs to go.

@yoomazir - Unfortunatly yes, Zavvi, Tesco, shopto and more have changed it to 18/03/11 while others including GAME and HMV have removed the game from their listings alltogether. Amazon are the only ones sticking to the 25th Feb release date but that will change soon. To be honest, i am losing hope that this game will ever be released in the UK.

to be honest the ideas are good, player town, multiplayer, and open world. But it's all done so poorly. I think after Skyrim smaller studios may not be able to compete.
