Following the release of the first official screenshots last month, TopWare Interactive has released an official trailer for the forthcoming Two Worlds II. Currently in development at Reality Pump, Two Worlds II is currently in development for PC, Mac, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.

Long ago, the era of peace was shattered in a terrible war between rivalling nations, leaving the land of Antaloor broken and changed. The race of Orphans swore eternal service to the four elements and their deities - Maliel, the Goddess of Air; Throglyn, God of the Earth; Yatholen, God of Water; and Aziraal, God of Fire. Dark magic also grew in power over the centuries in secret, until it emerged from the shadows to seize control.

The Dark Lord Gandohar finally makes his move, planning to disrupt the balance between the elements and become a God himself. To accomplish this, he wants to harness the power of Aziraal, trapped within Ky~ra, the descendant of the Orphans. Despite her ancestry, Ky~ra cannot hope to endure the procedure for long. Having already conquered Antaloor, Gandohar devises a new plan from his stronghold in Oswaroth. If he succeeds, he will gain control over one of the most powerful characters in Antaloor.

The saga created by weaving together the main story and different sub-stories promises to captivate the players as they journey through the atmospheric masterpiece of Antaloor. As the story unfolds through gameplay and cut-scenes, Two Worlds II offers a profound journey into Antaloor's past, as well as insight into the fate of a long-forgotten ruler's dynasty.

This official gameplay trailer is said to be complied entirely existing in-game footage, and demonstrates an intriguing pseudo-realism art direction. Two Worlds II is currently suggested for release early next year, and Electronic Theatre will keep you updated with all the latest details.
