Sierra today revealed that King’s Quest: Rubble Without a Cause, the second chapter of the new King’s Quest, will release worldwide on December 16 on the PlayStation 4 and PlayStation, Xbox One, Xbox 360 and Windows PC via Steam. In North America, the versions for both the PS4 and PS3 will be made available late afternoon on December 15.
Graham is now the ruling monarch of Daventry, but is the latest episode in the new King's Quest a royal success?
Gareth writes "Imagine you go out on a blind date with that special someone. The date is a huge success, it’s much better then you ever imagined and you really are having the best of times. Then the next day comes and you hear nothing; the date doesn’t ring back, text or communicate in any bloody way what so ever. A week passes, a month passes and you’ve forgotten all about them, until six months later you bump into them at Tesco’s, they wink at you, and you forget the last six months of waiting to jump straight back into the adventure. I’m mixing a lot of metaphors there but that’s exactly how I feel after the lengthy wait between chapters one and two of Kings Quest."
Yeah the wait in between episodes is atrocious..
But other than that I think it is a solid game so far. It has all the charm and flair that the older King's Quest games had.
I just hope the rest of the episodes come in a timely fashion.
Polygon:
King's Quest brings back the adventure game series created by Roberta Williams in the 1980s. Published under the old Sierra name, this revival by developer The Odd Gentlemen takes the form of an episodic adventure game.
I think it's interesting that PS+ is only giving out the first chapter this month. If only they waited a little bit!
I'm really glad that this exists. It's a faithful reincarnation of King's Quest without the BS that would make a game like that frustrating in a modern context.
Glad that we're getting the first chapter for free on PS+ this month, it'll give lots of people a first taste before they buy this next chapter!
Anyone knows when does PS store usually update? Really want to try gauntlet
