Sacred 2 expansion still in the works

By Ellie Gibson Published 22 June, 2009

Despite the demise of Ascaron.

The planned expansion pack for Sacred 2: Fallen Angel is still in development, according to a post on the Ascaron forums.

"Studio 2 (subsidiary company of Ascaron) has the licence for Sacred 2 and the devs will continue working at the add-on as they did before," wrote community manager 'Anca Adelina Finta'.

"In a nutshell, the add-on is not affected by anything and will come as planned."

Original Sacred 2 developer Ascaron filed for bankruptcy earlier this year. Kalypso Media subsequently picked up the rights to its assets.

"Kalypso and the other devs will do something different with the old licences they bought," confirmed AAF. "I really wish them good luck with that, they deserve it."

There's still no word on when we can expect to see the add-on released, or which platforms it will be available for. The Xbox 360 and PS3 version of Sacred 2 hit the shops a few weeks ago - read our review to find out all about it.

    Sounds like fun.

  • DrDamn #3 3 years ago

    I'm really enjoying Sacred 2 despite the graphical poorness. It's an honest game with a surprising amount of depth.

  • RedSparrows #4 3 years ago

    I'd rather they fixed lots of bugs first. Hopefully they will.

  • Lutz #5 3 years ago

    Yup, I'm hoping for a 360 patch. Again.

    Agreed, although I've come to actually *like* the graphics. Certainly not mind blowing but the variety of locales makes up for it. Addictive as hell.

    yegon; why are you not in our little group?

  • BraveArse #8 3 years ago

    Lutz: you have a little group?

    I've been sucked in I have to say. Rented the Ps3 version but then bought the 360 version as thats where my mates are... Kind of wish I'd gone for the PS3 one sometimes though as there seem to be more problems with the gfx on the 360. I'm really not one to complain about tearing normally but sometimes it makes me feel sick on the 360.

    That said I do love it... every time I stick it on for a quick blast I end up still there several hours later. And you can beat co-op with the missus in front of the telly whilst inviting Live friends in at the same time... oooer.
