DeepSilver, a division of Koch Media, will release the upcoming add-on for the PC version of Sacred 2 on August 28 in Germany.

Titled Ice & Blood, an international release date has not been provided as of yet, and the expansion for the console version is still being planned as well and you can keep up with its progress here.

Ascaron, it closed its doors a few weeks ago due to bankruptsy, and the subsidiary company of Ascaron: Studio 2 closed shop on July 31.

Thanks, Lutz.

Eurogamer Germany has a new video of the PS3 version of Sacred 2: Fallen Angel.

It shows character customization and a tiny bit of gameplay.

Developer Ascaron recently revealed the company had entered administration, as well confirming the existence of both a Sacred 2 add-on and a full sequel.

Hit up Eurogamer for the video.

Sacred 2 developer Ascaron Entertainment filed for bankruptcy protection on April 14, reports WorthPlaying.

According to the site, delays may have attributed to the firm’s financial issues.

To try and get another company interesting in acquiring the studio, it was revealed that an add-on for Sacred 2 is scheduled for release this summer, as is a third installment.

Ascaron put out new shots of the PS3 version of Sacred 2 today, showing the RPG looking pretty much like the other versions. Funny, that.

This is actually shaping up as a bit of a must-have for the dungeon massive, with little likely to oppose it in around its March 24 release.

Take a look.

Ascaron’s released a new video of RPG Sacred 2, showing “in-game action from the Xbox 360 version of the game, featuring characters such as the High Elf and Temple Guardian in combat within the world of Ancaria.”

It’s lots of fighting and menus, essentially, and all looks very Titan Questy. We still mourn, you know.

After the break.

Koch’s delayed Sacred 2, Eurogamer reports.

The RPG was supposed to hit in March, but will now appear in the second quarter.

It’s the 360 and PS3 versions taking the hit. They were originally planned to release alongside the PC SKU last November.

No dice. More through the link.

CDV’s to allow people to access Sacred 2 for free via P2P sharing, the publisher’s announced, although play with be time-locked to a day before you’re supposed to pay for the game.

The code will be cracked, of course, but the publisher is simply hoping that people will reward it in return for allowing people to get the full client for nothing.

“Nothing is, of course, uncrackable in the world of video games,” CDV chap Mario Kroll told MTV.

“Our intention is not to build Fort Knox (and thus surely irritating paying, legitimate customers), but instead to offer a sensible sharing solution that works for publishers and gamers.”

“Surely there will be cracks and unlock solutions,” he continued, “but we’re hoping that by extending the spirit of sharing and trying to be really unobtrusive in our approach, that consumers will do the right thing and reciprocate by paying for a high-value, high-quality game.

“I think with this approach, if it can be proven a success story, it will encourage other publishers to follow suit, rewarding those consumers that are fed up with other, overly draconian copy protection schemes impacting their enjoyment of games they bought.”

More through there. Sacred 2′s out in the first quarter of next year.

Koch Media has told Eurogamer that the PS3 and 360 versions of Sacred 2: Fallen Angel have slipped to Q1 2009.

No reason was given for the delay.

PC gamers get the game November 7 as promised. And that’s that.

According to this EG story, Sacred 2′s going to make it out on November 7 for PC, Xbox 360 and PS3.

The Koch RPG is an isometric affair with online co-op, so there should be plenty there to keep beard-lovers happy.

According to this Shacknews report, Sacred 2′s been announced for PS3 today.

The RPG was only previously down for a PC and Xbox 360 release, so there’s lovely.

All versions are out this autumn.

Interesting Sacred 2 fact: Rob Eurogamer does one of the voices in the game. True.

Sacred 2: Fallen Angel’s going to playable at Booth 6605 in the Moscone Center’s North Hall next week. The action-RPG’s hitting PC and Xbox 360 later this year. Deep Silver’s publishing this in Europe, with CDV handling the game in the States.

We have nothing to add. Sacred 2: Fallen Angel will be released in the States for PC and Xbox in the latter half of the year. Koch’s handling this in Europe, where the release date is as vague as “2008″. Sacred 2′s a fantasy action-RPG affair involving such non-cliches as high elves and shadow warriors. Turns out we did have something to add after all.
