A snippet of a conversation overheard at E3 in Los Angeles recently touted a new massively multiplayer online game currently in beta – Wizard101.
KingsIsle Entertainment is behind the title, which is a bright and colorful three-dimensional adventure game that is appropriate for young and old, and works on a variety of PCs as well as some laptops.
The game is rather insidious. It draws you in with charming graphical elements, then hooks you with addictive gameplay. Borrowing from a wide range of sources, from the Wizard of Oz to Harry Potter, Wizard101 is the tale of a young wizard – you – found among the realms and brought to Wizard City for training. But all is not right in the world. It seems evil had crept into the once peaceful haven of academia and now monsters, like ghosts, undead, skeletons and the like, are roaming the streets of the various hamlets.
Recently Skewed and Reviewed got to speak with KingsIsle about Wizard 101 and what is to come for the game.
KingsIsle Entertainment and gamigo are pleased to announce the start of Wizard101’s European services transfer from Gameforge. Starting today, Wizards across the pond will be able to experience new magical updates at a much faster rate to ultimately sync up closer with their North American counterparts.
KingsIsle Entertainment and gamigo are pleased to announce European Wizard101 services will transition over from Gameforge to KingsIsle and gamigo starting the week of May 16.
