Feeling like getting an early peek at what is lurking in Castle Shadowgate? Development team Zojoi and indie games partner Reverb Triple XP announced today that the closed Beta access of Shadowgate, one of the most renowned adventure titles in video game history, will be available starting today.
Closed Beta access is available to both Kickstarter backers of Shadowgate and new adventure seekers who pre-order the “Hero” tier for $24.99.
“Launching the closed Beta of Shadowgate is an exciting step for us as we give gamers an early taste of the bold adventure that awaits,” said Karl Roelofs, Design Director at Zojoi. “The new graphics and eerie music create an atmosphere that transports gamers from their everyday lives into this harrowing dark adventure that’s both classic and completely new. Of course, the great part is that players will quickly learn that this new castle is as deadly as the last.”
Shadowgate is coming to PC, Mac, iOS and Android tablets late this summer for $19.99, but gamers eager to get a head start on their journey can:
- ● Discount Price: Pre-order the PC and Mac versions today to reserve a copy for only $14.99 – a 25% discount.
- ● Adventurer Tier: Choose the “Adventurer” tier to receive the full game at release plus wallpapers and a digital Shadowgate calendar.
- ● Hero Tier: Become a true fan of high adventure by purchasing the “Hero” tier including all the other pre-order items plus a complete digital soundtrack, digital art book, Beta tester access with in-game credits, and access to the final game one week before launch!
Nearly 30 years after the original version premiered on the Macintosh, Shadowgate returns, fully re-imagined and updated for today’s gaming landscape. With 4K-capable resolutions, Shadowgate not only features a stunning level of hand-painted detail but also tons of new mind-bending puzzles and more objects to interact with to help you on your quest.
There are also plenty of throwbacks to the original version, so veterans and newcomers alike will relish their journey through Shadowgate… if they survive.
