Deep Silver announced that RISEN will be published for the Xbox 360 video game and entertainment system from Microsoft in North America this February. RISEN features an epic story with over 60 hours of exploration and adventuring.
RISEN is a massive, open-world RPG where every decision counts and every action continuously shapes a player's reputation. In a medieval setting, the game begins with the player shipwrecked on an island in turmoil, rocked by mysterious ruins rising from the ground. Players will battle dangerous creatures yet the promise of ancient treasures will lead them on an adventure where they must choose to align with either the native Rebel faction, or the mysterious Order and its Inquisition. Only then will they determine just what is truly happening on the "forbidden isle."
"We're incredibly excited about RISEN and the opportunity to publish it in North America," said Geoff Mulligan, Chief Operating Officer at Deep Silver. "What we bring to market is a deep, immersive RPG that Xbox 360 gamers have been clamoring for. RISEN is going to start off this year for RPGs in an amazing way."
RISEN features a seamless streaming environment that players can explore however they choose, using intuitive controls designed to make exploration and combat easily accessible to both RPG fans and newcomers alike. The game's central story can be experienced in different ways, depending on the in-game decisions players make.
RISEN is being developed by Piranha Bytes and scheduled for release in February 2010. For more information visit risen.deepsilver.com.
