Ravensdale Announced as Fantasy/Steampunk Action Game

Not only do we have official confirmation on Spellbound's Ravensdale, but we've also learned that the game utilizes the much-overlooked steampunk setting.  Unfortunately, the term "role-playing" is nowhere to be found, and we're only left with "fast-paced action":
Spellbound announced new multiplatform project

Project "Ravensdale" set to be a new milestone in the fantasy action genre

Kehl, Germany, April 22nd 2010 Today, the German development studio Spellbound Entertainment AG officially announced its new project (Ravensdale). The highly ambitious action game is set in a striking fantasy world offering a fresh and unique approach to the genre. The game will be developed for Xbox360, Playstation 3 and PC and is targeting for a release in 2012.

Project (Ravensdale) is a fast paced fantasy action game in a very unique (steam powered) setting featuring cool and outrageously over-powered gadgetry. The player will seek out high pressure steam outlets, to supercharge his equipment, allowing him to pulverize his adversaries and overcome the obstacles on his path.

Our products have always been and continue to be exemplary in the domain of creativity, aesthetic quality and art style. Our (steam powered) approach brings a completely refreshing and surprising value to the fantasy action genre.
