Risen 2: Dark Waters

Risen 2: Dark Waters is the sequel to Pirahna Bytes' fantasy RPG, Risen. The game was released April 27th, 2012.

There are always beings endowed with special power, chosen by the gods to determine the fate of the world. The Titan Lords were the first, lords of the elements. With their help, the gods created our world. But when their work was done, the Titan Lords turned on each other, and began a war that ravaged the earth. The gods grew angry when they saw what had become of the world, and banished the Titan Lords to the depths of the earth and the sea. Where they were to remain imprisoned until the end of time.

An ancient prophecy says on the day they are freed, the age of destruction will begin. Today we know its truth.
