Zojoi, in cooperation with indie games partner Reverb Triple XP, has announced that the reimagined Shadowgate will be arriving on Steam on August 21st. The original Shadowgate launched almost thirty years ago and the team is set to bring classic gaming to a new generation. To celebrate the release announcement, a new trailer has been produced to show off a greatly expanded game world.
In Shadowgate, intrepid gamers step inside the dark halls of Castle Shadowgate as "The Seed of Prophecy," the only one who could hope to defeat the traitorous Warlock Lord that dwells within. Designed with compelling cut-scenes that greatly expand the original Shadowgate universe, gamers navigate from room to room via the classic first-person perspective, using their wits to survive dangerous traps, devious puzzles, and ruthless enemies. If successful, they can assemble the Staff of Ages, a powerful relic capable of keeping this ancient enemy from destroying the living castle and the world of Tyragon itself.
