Atari has released a small gallery of screenshots that details their highly anticipated sequel to the MMORPG title Neverwinter Nights. Based in the fantasy world of the Forgotten Realms, a popular campaign settings of Dungeons and Dragons, Neverwinter Nights 2 takes the player from the tiniest of villages into a sweeping tale of danger and war, chronicling their rise from a peasant to a full-fledged hero of the Realms. Like any good role playing game, players will be able to build a character that suits their style of play - good or evil, chaotic or lawful, with any number of skills, feats and professions available at the click of a button. Gamers can also tailor their style of fighting to their liking as well, whether it be lobbing fireballs and researching forgotten spells as a powerful Wizard, hacking a trail through legions of orcs as a Fighter armed only with a battle axe and your courage, or taking on the role of a Rogue that can slip into the shadows at a moment's notice and take the purse from even the most perceptive of guardsmen. In Neverwinter Nights 2, players will have a completely open and dynamic story unfold in front of them with choices abound. One can choose their alignment, allies, companions, to make a unique blend between infamy, fame, and self-interest. Get more information from Atari.com and check out the screens below.
