Factory Sealed Retail MiniBox
Dungeon Siege is an action fantasy role-playing game that combines the immersive elements of a role-playing game (RPG) with the intensity of a real-time strategy (RTS) game.
Dungeon Siege will plunge players into a gigantic, continuous 3D fantasy world where they adventure to discover what evil has befallen the land. Starting out with a single character, players can travel through the world, gathering a party of up to 10 different characters, or choose to face the challenge alone. Dungeon Siege's fusion of action RPG and RTS controls impels the player into one over-the-top battle after the other as the storyline unfolds and a larger plot begins to reveal itself. Become Immersed in a Continuous Fully 3D Environment: The world of Dungeon Siege is one gigantic, continuous world where you can seamlessly journey from the highest mountain to the deepest dungeon without ever stopping to watch a "loading screen". Filled with a myriad of amazing locations to explore—from strange and mysterious castles to sinister secret underground lairs—you'll soon become totally immersed in the fantasy of the world that surrounds you. Intense Gameplay – Dungeon Siege Style: Dungeon Siege pushes the role-playing game (RPG) envelope with fully animated 3D characters, over-the-top battles, intense special effects, and awe-inspiring vertical landscapes. With true 3D environments, a particle system for effects and spells, and dungeons that can extend in all three dimensions, Chris Taylor and Gas-Powered Games are injecting the RPG genre with the same level of intensity found in RTS games.
In Dungeon Siege, you can Want a party heavy in magic, then bring along all the sorcerers you can find. If you're more of a solo artist, then recruit a trusty group of henchmen or a pack mule to help haul your loot. Action & Adventure Without the Wait: Dungeon Siege is engaging, yet easy to understand; action packed, yet easy to control; deep and involving, yet quick to learn. Get into the action quickly, without bothering yourself with too many decisions.
