Fishtank Interactive, a division of Ravensburger Interactive Media and a publisher of PC and console-based interactive games, announced today that their fantasy role-playing game "Arx Fatalis" is set to ship this November. Inspired by classic RPG's, developer Arkane Studios plunges players in the unexplored depths of the underworld where mystery and adventure are linked to a deep, satisfying storyline.

"'Arx Fatalis' is about integrity of game design," said Jerry Wolosenko, head of Fishtank Interactive in North America. "Arkane Studios has created an immersive environment where the player will experience a strange, sinister and graphically intense world. This game is destined to become a classic fantasy RPG title."

Set in Arx, a dark, mysterious realm of subterranean urban fantasy, "Arx Fatalis" is a gripping epic of the conflict between light and dark. Akbaa, the almighty god of Chaos, covets the world of Arx. His threatening presence forces inhabitants of Arx to flee their city seeking refuge in inhospitable areas of the vast underground. Through bloody human sacrifices, Akbaa and his minions will prevail and possess Arx unless they are thwarted in their rapacious quest by someone with the courage, skill and intelligence to mount a bold opposition.

The game features vast underground cities and giant caverns complete with dungeons, sewers and several dark, subterranean locations. The player progresses through a meticulously constructed world to prevent a diabolical cult from summoning an evil deity to the mortal plane. Based on a medieval fantasy storyline, "Arx Fatalis" offers a rich gaming experience enhanced by fantastic pyrotechnics and a detailed cast of characters.
