The original Sacred was a massive hit in its native Germany, managing to eclipse even Blizzard's Diablo in terms of sales there. The game may have had less of an impact worldwide, but its domestic success was enough to guarantee a sequel. Offering as huge a game world as the original but running completely in 3D, Sacred 2 is an even more ambitious project for the small development studio of Ascaron. We caught up with the team, which recently relocated to the town of Archen, as it heads ever closer to the Q1 2008 release, and we managed to get some play time with the PC and Xbox 360 versions along the way.

the original game was pretty crappy imo. had good potential though, maybe that will be realised in #2.
