Aspyr Media
Releases SpellForce 2 – Shadow Wars Demo

Aspyr Media today released a playable demo with
tutorial for their upcoming PC game release SpellForce 2 – Shadow Wars. In this
seamless blend of RTS and RPG genres, SpellForce 2 – Shadow Wars provides an
environment full of surprises and challenges as the player takes on the role of
the Avatar. Together with his party of heroes, the player solves quests and
overcomes obstacles in carefully crafted worlds. As you will see in this demo,
SpellForce 2 offers Dungeon Siege-type gameplay, but with a unique camera-angle
that lets players choose between 3/4 perspective, behind-the player view, and
more.
