Two Worlds II Velvet GotY [PC | Mac]

About the Game

Who can you TRUST in times of TREASON?

Five years have passed since dramatic events brought the whole world to the edge of the abyss. The hero is a prisoner in the dungeons of Gandohar's castle. His hopes of saving his sister vanished with his freedom. Just as despair threatens to overcome him, hope comes from where he would have least expected. The Orcs, a race the hero had always hated, have put together a rescue squad that frees the hero from his bonds. He emerges into a land desecrated by evil. He embarks on a journey to shed light on Gandohar's dark past, hoping to discover a weak point in his enemy's defense. If he fails, he will lose his sister forever.

Pirates of the Flying Fortress the expansion to Winter 2011's runaway hit, Two Worlds II (over 5 million copies sold worldwide), is rife with betrayal and bloody intrigue upon the high seas. A band of fame-hungry pirates led by the legendary Captain Ed Teal have become trapped in a cursed archipelago when their ship ran aground, where they will be damned to remain forever until aided by a hero with a strong back and a (somewhat) loyal disposition.

Trust, after all, is no short sale in these cursed islands, especially not for a man tasked with finding the Treasure - an immaterial wealth said to manifest the beholder's wildest dreams.

The Velvet Game of the Year Edition contains the Two Worlds II main game as well as the expansion Pirates of the Flying Fortress!

Gameplay

The road to your journey begin here. Your voyage will take you from the incredible bustling cityscapes of Hatmandor and New Ashos, through the massive and stunning Antaloor countryside, all the way to the darkest forgotten corners of the world.

Charge in to battle using variable tactics and weaponry. Forge alliances and seek out those in need of assistance. But be mindful of your decisions, they often bear consequences with a further reach than you may realize.

Information can be more valuable than the most precious of stones. Utilize intuition and sound judgment to unearth your enemy’s secrets. Make use of the vast array of specializations and crafting methods to better tailor your skills and abilities. Master crafting to customize armor and weaponry, brew complex potions, and craft unique and powerful spells.

Team up with friends to explore the five different game modes offered in multiplayer. Put your skills to the test against one another in arena battle or band together with up to 8 allies to conquer the cooperative campaign. You can even manage your own village whilst exploring the surrounding landscape and questing with the added help of your friends.

Pirates of the Flying Fortress introduces more than a sufficient amount of new gameplay elements. In addition to an archipelago filled with new vegetation in which players can traverse whether by foot, on horseback, sailing their own boat or even by swimming, there is also all-new races and bosses who lurk in the depths of the unexplored islands.Brilliantly flavored with stunning new cut-scenes, the 12+ hours of main quests await the player, permeated with twists and surprises at every decision. Dozens of new weapons including the crossbow, permanent potions and new armor accessories to increase the hero’s stats, effective horse armor, as well as fresh fighting techniques will provide the perfect means to get an all-new experience in the world of Antaloor. Thrilling in-game video sequences, and new weather effects; even seasoned "Two Worlds" veterans will get their money's worth!
