Backers of the Bard's Tale IV KickStarter from the $20 tier and upward will receive the series' first three games for free. The original trilogy will be released on successful funding of BTIV and there is an agreement in place for updating the original Apple IIe versions to run natively on Windows and Mac PCs.
“It’s pretty amazing to see how far the graphics have come since these first games and it’s fun to think that people will still be playing these classics decades after release. These games made my career so it’s only fitting that we are doing another game.” said Brian Fargo, CEO. “Of course playing them will not be necessary to understand the new title, but we wanted to give our backers the opportunity to and are always happy to give our supporters some free extra value!”
