Black Isle to unveil new role-playing game at E3



Interplay announces that Icewind Dale II won't be its only PC role-playing game on display.

Interplay has unveiled its lineup for the upcoming Electronic Entertainment Expo later this month. The company will show a number of console games, and the publisher's role-playing game division, Black Isle Studios, will be showing two games. The first game on display will be Icewind Dale II, the sequel to Black Isle's 2000 hack-and-slash role-playing game. Icewind Dale II will feature the 3rd Edition Dungeons & Dragons rules, and, like the original game, it will draw some inspiration from R.A. Salvatore's Icewind Dale Trilogy novels. The second game will be an unnamed role-playing game that the developer will reveal at the show.
Icewind Dale II is currently scheduled for release at the end of the month--just a few days after the end of E3. We'll have more information on both Icewind Dale II and Black Isle's unnamed role-playing game soon.

Let's hope It's a BG1 part 2 meaning you start at level 1 and you have to be totally afraid of wolves and ogres again - Aaah those good old times [img]smile.gif[/img]

I think it might be one of two possibilities:

FALLOUT 3

or

BG 3 (no, not a continuation of BG1 / BG2 Bhallspawn line, but another in the Baldur's Gate Franchise. BIS has commented in their forums repeatedly that just because the Bhallspawn plot ended in BG2:TOB it did NOT mean the end to Baldur Gate Franchise line. hehe)

I'll be there and I'll see what I can find out for you guys. I went to E3 last year as well and was disappointed to find out that the only Black Isle booth was for private parties. I couldn't go in to talk to people.

I'm with you dude! Although another BG type game wouldn't be all bad either. I wonder why they've kept it a secret?

I'd love to see a MMRPG set in the Fallout universe. That would be pretty cool =)
