Shadow Realms Rebooted, Launching in 2017 – Rumour

The PC-only title is also rumoured to be heading to PS4 and Xbox One.

Remember Bioware Austin’s Shadow Realms, its online action role playing game that was revealed at Gamescom 2014 after a hefty stream of teasers? The PC-only title may have undergone a significant retooling since the deal of its closed alpha test that was to happen in October 2014.

According to Kotaku, while two sources claimed the game had been cancelled, a third “reliable” source revealed that Shadow Realms had actually been overhauled to integrate EA’s Origin services. Though the game was originally thought to be offered as a standalone client, Origin integration means that the developer will have access to more resources and financing.

That’s not all – Shadow Realms will also have a campaign mode along with a possible release on PS4 and Xbox One. Whatever the case may be, sources state that we won’t see the RPG until at least 2017.

Take this all with a grain of salt but it would explain the absence of any Shadow Realms-related news and happenings in the past few months. What are your thoughts on the same? Let us know in the comments.
