Shrouded Isles go gold

Mythic hopes to usher in another Dark Age

Dark Age of Camelot: Shrouded Isles has gone gold. The expansion pack is due to ship in the US on December 3rd, with a European release scheduled for February. "Dark Age of Camelot is the fastest growing massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG) in North America and Europe, and the launch of Dark Age of Camelot: Shrouded Isles will only accelerate that growth," said Mark Jacobs, President of Mythic Entertainment. Jacobs went on to thank the development team and international partners including Vivendi, who will distribute the game in North America, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa.

There are more than 50,000 playing Dark Age of Camelot at peak times, with more than 500,000 users since the game's original release. The expansion pack is expected to boost this, enticing fans both new and old with a roster of changes, including new character classes, races and three new continents.
