GameZone's Vito Gesualdi previews the upcoming PC, Xbox 360, and Playstation 3 RPG Gamma World: Alpha Mutation. It is from the same team that put together Dungeons and Dragons Daggerdale, and they are tackling the Wizards of the Coast property.
Chris writes: "I wasn’t particularly impressed with Dungeons & Dragons: Daggerdale. My biggest complaint was that it was being touted as a “Dungeons & Dragons” title, but had virtually none of the customization options that are so integral to the Dungeons & Dragons experience. At E3, one of the Atari guys behind that title showed me a new title, Gamma World: Alpha Mutation, and the best thing I can say about it is that they learned from that mistake and did not repeat it."
From Gamertell:
"At long last, the fourth edition (4e) of Dungeons and Dragons (D&D) will be in a computer game, when Atari’s Heroes of Neverwinter Nights comes out at the end of this summer. This turn-based, free-to-play browser game won’t play exactly like the 4e rules, but will come close and what it lacks in exactitude it more than makes up for in ease of play and convenience."
The article also includes a quick Atari booth tour video.
With absolutely no warning, Atari has just announced Gamma World: Alpha Mutation, an action RPG based in Wizards of the Coast's sci-fi, post-apocalyptic campaign setting. The game will be coming to the PC, Xbox Live Arcade, and PlayStation Network, with Daggerdale developers Bedlam Games at the helm.
