Kalypso Media Announces Release Date For The Dark Eye: Demonicon

The Dark Eye is known to and beloved by RPG fans the world over as one of the best tabletop RPG’s around, most notably notably in Germany, where the game originated, and regularly has outsold the better known Dungeons and Dragons. The fourth edition of The Dark Eye was the first to be published in English in 2003, prompting the release of several video games and novels, released under the title Realms of Arkania, until the rights switched hands and the series resumed production under the name The Dark Eye.

Seven games later, we now await the release of The Dark Eye: Demonicon. Demonicon tells the story of a brother and sister making their way through a world tainted with evil, forced to rely on weaponry and magic to survive and aid those in need. The game play will feature pin-point timing, tactical combat, and a unique magic system.

Demonicon will be the first game in the series to see release on any platform other than computer. It is set to release for Windows in October, and a release for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 is slated for sometime in 2014.

They have also released the official box art of the game which you can check above.
