Infogrames Announce Neverwinter Nights Expansion Pack News

First details on the eagerly awaited expansion pack.
Infogrames today announced an expansion pack to the popular PC title Neverwinter Nights. Neverwinter Nights: Shadows of Undrentide is the first official expansion pack to the original game and is scheduled for release in Spring 2003.
The pack is currently in development at FloodGate Entertainment and will include a new 40hr single-player campaign, along with new D&D skills such as Tumble and Appraise; new feats including Divine Might, Extra Music and Bullheaded; new classes; new monsters including Medusa, Cockatrice, Sphinx and Female Fire Giant; extra weapons such as Water Flasks and choking Powder and dozens of new spells. In addition the pack contains two new tile sets and other assets for the Aurora Tool-Set, which enables fans to create their own worlds and features.
âOver the past few months, fans of Neverwinter Nights have been engrossed in the Official Campaign, or building their own incredible adventures with the Toolset, or guiding their friends through the thousands of user created modules as a Dungeon Master, or even tweaking the game in ways weâd not anticipated â“ all very exciting for us to see. Theyâve also been asking for more âofficial contentâ â“ and weâre happy to be able to accommodate them with expansion packs,â said Dr. Ray Muzyka, joint CEO and Co-Executive Producer of Neverwinter Nights: Shadows of Undrentide. âI think Dungeons & Dragons fans will be surprised and pleased with the new content and stories weâre creating.â
âNeverwinter Nights is the definitive role playing experience on the personal computer,â said Larry Sparks, Vice President Marketing Europe. âWith Neverwinter Nights: Shadows of Undrentide, we are giving the fans all-new content for their single player campaigning as well as the tools to push their own creations to the next level in the Neverwinter Nights Aurora Toolset.â
âItâs a great collaborative arrangement weâve got with Floodgate,â said Dr. Greg Zeschuk, joint CEO and Co-Executive Producer of Neverwinter Nights: Shadows of Undrentide. âWeâre providing technical and design assistance. Theyâre using the Neverwinter Nights Aurora Toolset with some new additions (that will soon be available to Neverwinter Nights owners) and creating custom art to develop the new Dungeons & Dragons storyline and content.â
In addition, Infogrames confirmed that BioWare are currently developing their own expansion pack, set for release in Summer 2003.
