Bethesda have announced that they will be publishing a new fantasy game from inXile Entertainment. Although inXile veered away from any major platform since their mediocre adaptation of “The Bard’s Tale†to consoles in 2004, their founder, Brian Fargo is very well known for the projects he has been part of, of which Carmageddon, Fallout and Baldur’s Gate are just a few.
Bethesda is undoubtedly one of the forerunners in the Fantasy/Role Playing genre, and are known for taking on great projects that have a massive fan base. From the screens that have been released thus far, this co-op, cross-platform dungeon crawler looks good, lets hope Bethesda build on their reputation and that of Brian Fargo’s.
Having someone like Fargo team up with a great publisher like Bethesda has potential to excite a lot of hopefuls, myself included.
“We are thrilled to be working with Bethesda Softworks on this upcoming release that takes us back to our roots,†said Brian Fargo, Founder of inXile Entertainment. “Bethesda’s track record speaks for itself and the game we are developing for them is no exception.â€
“inXile has an extremely talented team and we couldn’t be more pleased to have them working on one of our upcoming titles,†said Vlatko Andonov, President of Bethesda Softworks. “We believe gamers will be really excited about what these guys have in store for them.â€
No release date has been mentioned thus far, all we know now is that it is slated for PC, Xbox and PS3.
