Technical:- Steam requirement and no mod tools, like Risen 2- The game is developed for PC, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 -next gen consoles weren't mentioned in the preview- The engine is the same as Risen 2's, with improved detail rendering - but the cons of Risen 2's graphics (e.g. the rudimentary dialogue animations) should still be present and when compared in particular with its competitors The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt and Dragon Age: Inquisition, aren't up to modern standards.DLC:- DLC offer bigger scopeRelease Date:- Expected Release: August 2014
Risen 3: Titan Lords was panned by critics on release after the just above average, piratical Risen 2: Dark Waters, but what else does Deep Silver have to release this year with Dead Island 2 losing its developer?It's this "Enhanced Edition" of Risen 3 for PS4 and a "Director's Cut" for Wasteland 2.The PS4 version is supposedly comparable to the original PC release on Ultra (1080p, 30 fps) and releases in August.
Risen 3: Titan Lords: The graphical fidelity has RisenAUGUST 21 - DG_DEEPSILVER...now that we have your attention with our terrible pun, today we'd like to announce that, courtesy of a free automatic update for those who already have the game in their library, we're bringing a slew of visual enhancements to Risen 3: Titan Lords for players running the game on a 64-bit Operating System - - Improved texture resolution for items, objects, foliage, terrain, particle effects, characters, monsters and other in-game models. - Improved draw distance & viewing ranges - Larger caches leading to smoother frame-rates & less LOD streaming - The introduction of new state of the art post-process effects such as bokeh depth of field and HDR bloom - Addition of a new physically based, more visually realistic cloud rendering technique that adds even more spectacular skies and sunsets to the dynamic day-night cycles. For those of you yet to own Risen 3: Titan Lords, fear not: if you're running on a 64-bit OS then you'll automatically receive the 64-bit version of the game upon purchase. Due to the fact that the above improvements are only possible through the extra bandwidth switching to 64-bit affords us, those of you running on a 32-bit OS & purchasing the game will receive the original 32-bit version, which will of course update automatically should you ever move to a 64-bit OS at a future point. In addition any DLCs that you have previously purchased (or may purchase in future) will obviously also function in the 64-bit version and all save games & previously obtained Steam achievements will also transfer from the 32-bit version to 64-bit version. All the best! The Risen 3: Titan Lords Team
