Highly Anticipated RPG Features Groundbreaking
Combination
of Incredible Graphics and Non-linear Gameplay
April 23, 2002 (Rockville, MD) — Bethesda Softworks™
announced today that the highly-anticipated role-playing game, The
Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind™ for PC, has gone to gold
master and will be in stores the first week of May. Morrowind will also be available soon for the Xbox™ video game system
from Microsoft.
Morrowind is an epic, open-ended single-player RPG in which
a player can create and play any kind of character imaginable. Players
can choose to follow the main storyline and find the source of the
evil blight that plagues the land, or set off on their own to explore
strange locations and develop their character based on their actions
throughout the game. Featuring stunning 3D graphics, open-ended
gameplay, and an incredible level of detail and interactivity, Morrowind promises to be an experience like no other.
"We know the gaming community has been anxiously awaiting
the arrival of Morrowind for a long time," said Todd Howard,
project leader for Morrowind. "We were able to remain true
to our goal of providing the deepest, most cutting edge RPG you
can buy. I hope everyone will enjoy the game as much as we enjoyed
creating it."
Morrowind is the sequel to Bethesda's award-winning titles
Arena™ and Daggerfall®, highly regarded as two of the most
intricate and compelling role-playing games ever released. Following
in their footsteps, Morrowind has already garnered numerous
awards from last year's E3 show and an impressive collection of
accolades. PC Gamer Magazine called it "The best-looking 3D
RPG ever," and GameSpy included Morrowind on its list of most
wanted games for 2002.
"As has already been mentioned by numerous gaming publications, Morrowind will change the way we view role-playing games
forever," said Vlatko Andonov, president of Bethesda Softworks.
"We couldn't be prouder of the development team for what they've
accomplished, for taking on a challenge like Morrowind and
implementing it so skillfully." |
