Milton Keynes, UK. August 15, 2003 Virtual Programming announces today that it will be bringing KnightShift, a unique and mystical RTS/RPG hybrid to the Mac market.
KnightShift offers the best of conventional
RPG and RTS games combined into a mystic world, full
of fantasy and imagination. The player takes control
over heroes, real or magical characters, and leads
them to victory and honour.
Set in a living, fully three dimensional gaming environment,
KnightShift will bewitch your Mac with breathtaking
graphics and effects. The graphics engine provides
visuals, as yet, not seen before in a game. The unique
combination of RTS and RPG elements in the single
player campaigns, the hardcore gamer dedicated RPG
mode for single and multiplayer matches and the unique
humour of KnightShift brings real innovation into
today's gaming world.
"Virtual Programming is pleased to be working with Zuxxez on this title," says Paul Lesurf, Director for Virtual Programming. "KnightShift is a fantastic combination of RTS and RPG set in a visually stunning game world. We are looking forward to its release on the Mac platform."
"KnightShift will be a real blockbuster on the Windows platform" says Alexandra Constandache, CEO of ZUXXEZ Entertainment AG, "and we are confident that Virtual Programming will provide all Mac users with a great port for this title."
Mirek Dymek, Project Leader at Reality Pump Studios, comments "during the code assessment we had already recognized the great knowledge of our partner VP in porting advanced codes to the Mac platform - Everyone can expect the best graphics seen in a Mac games title, yet."
In a distant land, long, long ago there once lived
a prince. He was righteous and just, noble and honourable
by nature and above all evil. Dark and treacherous
powers joined together to spread evil over the land
and to banish the prince from the principality and
the thoughts of the people.
Then, after an unsuccessful spell from the despicable
lords, the prince was banished to another dimension.
But not from the memory and hearts of the people.
Some years later, through the opening of a portal
between dimensions by a good hearted magician, the
prince was able to return to his principality.
The task then was to drive out the evil lords from
power and to allow peace and order to return.
A bitter fight against the powers of evil is now
imminent.....
