Dominions III In Development
 October 18th, 2004 (10:54am) - Shrapnel Games and Illwinter Game Design have announced that work has begun on Dominions III, the direct sequel to the multi-award winning Dominions II: The Ascension Wars.
Dominions III will build on the foundation laid out in Dominions II, taking an already proven formula of strategic gameplay and enhancing it in many ways. Some of these changes come directly from the input of the wonderful worldwide Dominions community, while others are completely new features introduced by Illwinter. Here is but a taste of what to expect from Dominions III:
Several new nations, which in turn will increase the number of possible players to create some truly epic wars of ascension.
A brand new interface making it even easier to simply jump in and play.
A random map generator for endless game possibilities.
New battlefield backgrounds.As work progresses on Dominions III and the feature list becomes more solidified expect to see more features revealed, many of which will bring great joy to Dominions II players. "Dominions III will be an excellent fusion of proven ideas and awesome new features, many taken directly from gamers whose passion for Dominions II is amazing," Tim Brooks, President and Founder of Shrapnel Games, commented. "This will be an evolutionary title that will give the faithful thousands upon thousands more hours of the unparalleled intense fantasy gaming they’ve come to enjoy with Dominions II." While the current release date is "when it’s done", gamers should expect to see Dominions III ascend in late 2005 if all goes well. Like Dominions II: The Ascension Wars, Dominions III will be available on a wide range of popular operating systems, including Windows, Macintosh, and Linux. Solaris will no longer be supported.
