Dungeon Siege II: Broken World Announced

WorthPlaying is reporting that 2K Games has acquired the publishing rights for Gas Powered Games' upcoming expansion pack, Dungeon Siege II: Broken World. Apparently they've also secured the rights to a brand new PSP title based on Gas Powered's RPG franchise entitled Dungeon Siege: Throne of Agony. A few details:
Dungeon Siege II: Broken World picks up right where Dungeon Siege II left off with an all-new campaign mode, a new playable race, more items to discover and a brand new multi-class character development system. Dungeon Siege II: Broken World will require the full version of Dungeon Siege II.

"We're excited to be working with 2K Games," said Chris Taylor, Founder and Creative Director of Gas Powered Games. "We're expanding the Dungeon Siege universe on the PC with a new campaign and opening up even more new territory on the PSP system with a second, unique adventure that you can stuff in your backpack and take with you wherever you go."

Dungeon Siege: Throne of Agony for the PSP system, in development at SuperVillain Studios, is another entirely new adventure created from the ground up specifically for the handheld system. Dungeon Siege: Throne of Agony features all-new playable characters and a freshly designed, non-linear, single-player campaign as well as support for Ad Hoc co-operative and competitive multiplayer games.
