ATARI’s SILVERFALL® IN STORES NOW
- Eagerly Anticipated Hack-and-Slash Role-Playing Game Available in North
America-
NEW YORK, NY, March 22, 2007 – Atari, Inc. (Nasdaq: ATAR), one of the
world’s most recognized brands and leading third-party video game publisher,
today announced that Silverfall®, a dynamic 3D action role-playing game
(RPG), has arrived at retailers across North America. Developed by Monte
Cristo Games, Silverfall is rated T for Teen and is available for the
Windows platform at a suggested retail price of $39.95.
Silverfall casts players into a world torn between science and nature,
forcing gamers to choose between the two in order to save the principal city
from total destruction. The player must take on quests and defeat slews of
opponents during the journey through the fascinating world of Nelw?´. Two
non-playing character (NPC) companions accompany and assist the player
throughout the Silverfall adventure. Decisions made during each quest will
be key as choices impact storyline, environment and accumulation of skills.
“Engaging, immersive and imaginative, Silverfall is a unique addition to the
genre of role-playing games,” said Stephen Baer, senior product manager,
Atari, Inc. “Having been among the top five of GameSpot.com’s ‘Top 10 PC
games’ list for the last week, Silverfall is certainly a must-have for PC
and RPG fans alike.”
Silverfall offers a unique character building system of advancement and
equipment that allows for complete customization of characters. Gamers can
develop distinctive characters such as scientist troll magicians, elemental
elf warriors, or mercantile goblins. Fighting and magic are employed
throughout, and vary from melee, ranged, and technical, to light, elemental
and dark. Gamers will play through a 25-hour main quest, numerous side
quests and two multiplayer modes, player-versus-player and co-operative; and
can further extend their experience with the included game editor, allowing
would-be level designers to create their own adventures to play alone or
with friends.
With four races to choose from, nine skill sets encompassing more than 130
individual skills, over 100 monsters, and advanced 3D graphics, Silverfall
replenishes the RPG genre with a memorable hack-and-slash action adventure.
