Risen 2 Gets A Date

RISEN2

Deep Silver and Piranha Bytes have announced the official release date for the pirate RPG Risen 2: Dark Waters as April 27th, 2012 for Europe. USA and Canada get the game on April 24th, 2012.

In Risen 2: Dark Waters, the Inquisition dispatches the hero to seek a remedy against the monstrous sea creatures that are interfering with the shipping lines, thus cutting off the islands’ supplies. The pirates seem to know how to deal with these critters … but they are hardly cooperative.

New gameplay elements add to the diversity of Risen 2; for example, players can also use firearms now. And, being pirates, adventurers can also employ special new skills called Dirty Tricks, allowing them to confuse or attack enemies in combat.

Deep Silver will release Risen 2: Dark Waters for the Xbox 360, Windows PC, and PlayStation 3.
