Sacred 2 Trailer Highlights Console Co-op Crawling

by Nick Breckon, May 04, 2009 2:33pm PDT

Cooperative hack-and-slash action comes to consoles next week with Ascaron's Diablo-esque title Sacred 2: Fallen Angel. For those interested in the prospect, the console versions of the fantasy game's multiplayer mode support up to four players online and two offline.

Sacred 2 is already out on PC, with a free demo to try. The Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 versions ship May 12.

Did I play the wrong demo a while back? I remember it being much crappier than that.

I am staying clear due to this: http://www.ascaron.com/gb/gb_news/index.html

"On Tuesday 14th April 2009, Ascaron Entertainment GmbH, Germany, went into administration at the regional court in Bielefeld, Germany."

I only vaguely know what "Administration" means, but from the context it seems they are in a poor financial situation. Although they assure their customers that Sacred 2 servers will continue to function, who knows if thats true, or if patches/DLC will continue to be developed. Personally, I'll be avoiding Sacred 2, at least while the price is ~$50 USD [on steam].

I don't know if I should have been watching the HD stream instead, but I thought the enivronments in all of the boss battles they showed were very bland, flat and not very detailed. I mean, Titan Quest looked better than that.
