FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

London (07 June 2010) – Square Enix Ltd., the publisher of SQUARE ENIX ^® interactive entertainment products in Europe and other PAL territories, announced today that it is partnering with Obsidian Entertainment ^® on DUNGEON SIEGE ^® 3. With input from the original developer, Gas Powered Games ^® , Obsidian Entertainment will develop the next incarnation of the DUNGEON SIEGE franchise with Square Enix as the game’s publisher. Coming for the first time to high-def home video game consoles, DUNGEON SIEGE 3 will be available for the PlayStation ^® 3 computer entertainment system, the Xbox 360 ^® video game and entertainment system from Microsoft, and Windows PC.

DUNGEON SIEGE 3 is representative of Square Enix’s ongoing strategic partnership with Western game developers and its commitment to increasing its presence in those markets. The game will bring together the beloved aspects of the DUNGEON SIEGE franchise with Obsidian Entertainment’s expertise, to create an evolved action-RPG experience. In addition to its arrival on high-def consoles for the first time, the game will also feature an all-new co-op multiplayer mode.

Originally created by Chris Taylor and his critically-acclaimed studio Gas Powered Games, Taylor will serve as an advisor during the development of the game. DUNGEON SIEGE 3 will seamlessly blend intuitive action gameplay and a robust RPG system in an immersive world where every decision the player makes will result in consequences.

On his involvement, Taylor comments, “It has been a great pleasure to collaborate with Obsidian. They are a very talented developer who really knows what it takes to build a deep and engaging RPG experience, and I can’t think of a better group to continue the Dungeon Siege series”.

“It’s a distinct privilege and thrill to become a part of the DUNGEON SIEGE legacy,“ said Feargus Urquhart, CEO and Co-Founder of Obsidian Entertainment. “This partnership with Square Enix is a milestone for both Obsidian and the franchise, and the two companies’ strengths for compelling characters and storytelling will shine throughout DUNGEON SIEGE 3.”

“Square Enix is proud to partner with Obsidian Entertainment for DUNGEON SIEGE 3,” said Mike Sherlock, Co-Chief Operating Officer, Square Enix Europe. “The company has a history in making some of the most immersive and entertaining videogames and is a perfect fit to take the franchise forward and create a new benchmark for the action-RPG.”

"Dungeon Siege 3" will have a few names on its box that didn't appear on "Dungeon Siege 2," but the newest installment in the series will jump onto the Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 in addition to PC's courtesy of developers at Obsidian Entertainment and publisher Square Enix.

"It's a great pleasure to collaborate with Obsidian," the series' creator, Chris Taylor of Gas Powered Games, said in a press release. Taylor will help out in an advisory role on the project. "They are a very talented developer who really knows what it takes to build a deep and engaging RPG experience, and I can't think of a better group to continue the Dungeon Siege series."

 

Obsidian and Square Enix sound thrilled be working with him, too, and they said as much in the announcement.

"It's a distinct privilege and thrill to become a part of the Dungeon Siege legacy," Obsidian Entertainment CEO and co-founder Feargus Urquhart said in a press release. "This partnership with Square Enix is a milestone for both Obsidian and the franchise, and the two companies' strengths for compelling characters and storytelling will shine throughout 'Dungeon Siege 3.'"

The release said very little about gameplay, although an "action-RPG experience" and "an all-new co-op multiplayer mode" both came up. Just how well the series transitions onto un-tested platforms should be interesting to watch, but console-owning fans who haven't updated their PC hardware in a few years may have good reason to be excited already.

Are you glad to see the Dungeon Siege series coming to consoles? Which system would you rather play it on? Share your opinions in the comment section below.

P.S. 回家會再更新巴哈

Zonematch關了，MSN不能/不會公開，要找同伴一起在阿蘭納大陸冒險也很困難，而近來我才得知道Xfire這一個不錯的小軟件，似乎在外國也頗多人用，而外國一班DS的愛好者利用這個軟件找同伴一起冒險。

什麼是Xfire?

Xfire是有類似QQ、MSN的聊天功能，但最重要的功能是它會偵測你的電腦中安裝的遊戲（一些熱門的遊戲如DS、Diablo等等），並會顯示你現在正在玩的遊戲，以及你的伺服器IP。而當你玩遊戲的時候，你也可以開啟in-Game聊天功能，接收朋友的訊息，或者發送訊息給朋友。

另外，Xfire也有提供公會功能（其實就是類似以前的奇摩家族），可以在Xfire的網頁建立公會，加入者會在Xfire這個軟件中顯示該公會會員的狀態，不用逐個加好友，非常方便。

--

如何安裝Xfire?

1) 先去http://www.xfire.com/download/now/ ，下載並安裝Xfire，Xfire這個軟件的安裝檔已含繁中介面（Chinese (Traditional))。

2) 打開Xfire這個軟件，它會先叫你申請一個免費的帳號，按著指示填寫資料，然後登入，年齡請填十三歲以上。你亦可在Xfire的官方網頁申請（不過我不能成功…）。

--

如何使用Xfire?

開啟Xfire之後，就可以發現這大約可以分成左、右兩部份，左方就是類似MSN/QQ等的朋友名單，可以在此看見朋友的狀態，開啟聊天視窗等等（可以用中文聊天的）。

右方部份是顯示詳細資料，點一下”線上朋友”，就會顯示你的動態、公會動態及你所安裝的遊戲。點擊朋友的帳號，就會顯示他正在玩的遊戲，及IP Address，如果是Xfire支援的遊戲，甚至會有"Join Game"這個選項。

順帶一提，左方部份的上面，有"工具"一欄，在此欄下有"新增朋友"及"選項"，"新增朋友"可以選擇用email邀請朋友加入Xfire，或者搜尋Xfire的用家。"選項"欄可以修改暱稱及聊天視窗的字體大小，字體大小我推薦改成大，才能清楚顯示正體中文字。

--

如何加入Clan（公會）?

可以去Xfire的官方網頁中搜尋，url為 http://zhtw.xfire.com/clans/。
找到想加入的公會之後，在公會頁中，左方的選項欄最後一項就是"Join clan"（clan一字可能換成team/league/guild等等，視乎建立者如何設定），然後等待管理者同意就可以加入。

現在最多外國的DS玩家的是Dungeon Siege Survivor，末日危城殘存者囧，active的玩家似乎不多，不過作為單機game，沒有父母及養料的支持，也是沒辦法了。
http://zhtw.xfire.com/clans/dssurvivors/

另外，為測試我也建立了另一個clan”DSGamer”，看看大家有沒有需要吧，目標群自然是咱這班殘存的中文使用者的末日同好，歡迎加入。

Chris Taylor squashed rumors about Dungeon Siege 3 being in the works. Evidently, the published translation of the recent interview at was taken out of context. 

"When asked if we were considering taking lessons learned from Space Siege back into the Dungeon Siege series, the answer was, yes," he explains. Due to multi-character parties in the pervious two Dungeon Siege games, players weren't able to focus on a central character; thus a decision was made to focus on fewer characters in Space Siege. In that sense, when talking about a potential Dungeon Siege 3, Taylor was speaking hypothetically.

"We have not made any official announcements, or have any official plans [for a new Dungeon Siege], but we are kicking ideas around," he says. "It would be a long time before another DS game was finished and saw the light of day."

Crap!

根據德國遊戲媒體報導，Gas Powered Games 創辦人 Chris Tayler 透露，公司將開發《末日危城（英文原名 Dungeon Siege）》第三代。 　　

Gas Powered 目前正開發的作品為科幻類角色扮演遊戲《Space Siege》，而且這款作品的設計方式將可能對《末日危城 3》產生影響。Chris Tayler 表示，《末日危城 3》有些部分相當類似第一代與第二代，但又有部分將會加以簡化，他有想要原本的多角色組隊，但內容又想是陳述單一個英雄，有太多的部分仍待整合。 　　

當初《末日危城》以讓玩家可率領團隊共同完成任務，體驗龐大與連續的冒險世界，與完整的故事性等特色聞名。根據德國媒體報導，Chris Tayler 的說法可能意味著《末日危城 3》將取消當初率領多角色團體的特色，而呈現類似《Space Siege》單一英雄的呈現方式。
