Dark Messiah of Might & Magic
Ubisoft have announced they’re working on a new FPS, Dark Messiah of Might & Magic, powered by an enhanced version of the Source Engine. We all know what Valve’s engine can do, having seen Valve themselves put it to good use for Half-Life 2.
Developed by Arkane Studios, the team behind Arx Fatalis, Dark Messiah of Might & Magic puts players in the Might and Magic universe viewed from a first-person perspective. Ubisoft claim that this is the world's first fantasy action game to feature a complete first-person combat system and that the game takes full advantage of the Source Engine's technological enhancements in areas such as character animation, advanced AI, real-world physics and shader-based rendering.
Dark Messiah of Might & Magic is scheduled for a summer 2006 release.
